In the several months since the launch of Comments, we've made some improvements that we wanted to let you know about. For those of you who aren't familiar, the Comments feature allows people mentioned in a story to comment on the articles in question. We think it's a great way to expose even more perspectives to you, the readers of Google News.
First, we've added a
link
on the Google News homepage that showcases all of the comments that are currently included in Google News.
By clicking on this link, you can review all of the expert comments. It's a great way to catch up on discussion around current news stories.
Also, to make it easier for commentors to submit comments, we've created a
contact form
to expedite this process. Currently, the ability to comment is only open to people who have been mentioned in a story or are related to an organization mentioned in a story. This form will make it easier for us to gather the information we need from them to get their comments into Google News as quickly as possible.
For more information about the Comments feature, visit our
help center pages
. And to provide feedback on this, or any other part of Google News, visit our
feature suggestions page
