How to add Google News to your Blog or Site

How cool would it be if your Blog or Site could show breaking news and headlines of Google News. The News dynamically changes so that you are not looking at just one news item all the time.

Well its simple. And here is how you do it.

Step 1 - Go to the following URL
http://code.google.com/apis/ajaxsearch/documentation/newsshow/wizard.html

Step 2 - Select the Style, Language, Size, News Category and Country.

Step 3 - Copy the code generated below the preview area and paste it in your Blog or Site.

In Blogger:
Go the Layout Tab and Click on 'Add a Gadget'. Click on "HTML/JavaScript". Paste the code and Save. That's it You are done!!


You can see a sample in the right hand side of this page below the survey. It needs a bit of tweaking with colors so that it matches the rest of the blog. But for now I will leave it as it is..
