MSN’s News Aggregator Offers Deduping

by on

Program Manager Todd Colby posted to msnsearch’s WebLog last month on MSN Newsbot’s addition of a ‘similar coverage’ feature [SearchEngineGuide]:

  • “As you may know, many news sites publish wire service stories, like those from The Associated Press. Since the same story is republished on multiple sites the reader does not gain by having these presented repeatedly. Newsbot now groups these together with a single summary and allows the reader to select the site where they want to read the full version.”
