Google News started as a small program that crawled and aggregated news, written by one of Google’s Engineers. That was a nice idea to have news from various sources collaged on a single page. Soon the idea found many takers inside Google. Google saw opportunity with the new idea and employed people to convert this to a full-fledged service.
A Beta version of Google News made its first public appearance in Dec 2001 sourcing news from about 100 websites. Today, Google News has graduated from a Beta service and scans more than 4,500 different websites in real time. The Google News service is completely automated managed entirely by computer programs.
