 Welcome to NewsNow Xtended
Welcome to NewsNow Xtended, the brand new, updated version of
NewsNow. The site has some exciting new features...
Expanded range and depth of newsfeed topics
Thanks to the improved navigation system, we've been able to expand
the number of newsfeeds available nearly threefold. So with more than 2,000 newsfeeds, now there's something for everyone!
Advanced navigation system
There are now three ways to get to the news you want:
- Use the popup menus to browse the list of available newsfeeds, and
click on the name of a newsfeed to go there. Note that some sections
(eg 'Current Affairs') are also newsfeeds, so you can click on the
section name to jump to the newsfeed.
- When viewing a newsfeed, click on one of the links under 'See
Also' to go to a related newsfeed.
- Use the site search facility to search for matching newsfeeds and
articles. You can use more than one word when searching.
Multi-word headline search
You can now search for headlines for more than one word, and search for phrases by enclosing them in double quotes.
My Most Viewed
NewsNow keeps track of the newsfeeds you view, and presents you
with a list of the ones you use the most, so you can easily jump
straight to them. Up to ten newsfeeds are listed. Note that the information about the feeds you visit
is stored on your computer, not on NewsNow's servers - please see our
privacy policy.
My Recently Read
Similarly, every time you click on an article, it appears in the
box under 'My Recently Read', so you can easily go back to an article later.
Up to ten articles are listed.
Tabbed browsing support
The new version of the site is compatible with tabbed browsers:
click on 'Use tabs', and follow the instructions to configure your web
browser to open new articles in a new tab instead of popping up a new
window.
Font style controls
Use the 'Smaller titles' and 'Larger titles' links to change the
size of the font used to display headlines. Click on 'Bold
titles'/'Non-bold titles' to toggle using a bold typeface for
headlines.
Show/hide blogs
You can toggle the inclusion of blogs in newsfeeds on and off by clicking on 'Hide
blogs' and 'Show blogs'.
