NewspaperAbstracts.com has a whole new look! If you have not stopped by
lately, take another look. Many new articles and features have been added to the
site, making it easier to navigate, find and contribute news items.
New features:
Webfeed - Place our news items on your website thru our webfeed. As new
items are added to Newspaper Abstracts, your webfeed is automatically updated to
reflect the latest in old news for any county you choose!
Article Manager - An improved script to allow you to place your news articles
online. With the increased functionality, articles are added to their proper
area in a matter of minutes or hours (we have to sleep sometime!), or even
instantly if you have a contributor account!
Search - The site search engine is updated immediately with the latest news
items. No more waiting for the weekly update to find the latest news!
Coordinators - It is no longer necessary to know HTML or FTP in order to
coordinate a county/state. If you can fill out an online form, you can coordinate
a county or state!
Contributors - Don't have time to coordinate a county or state, but you still
want to be able to place articles online immediately. If you are a regular
contributor to the site, you can apply for a Contributor account and have
immediate access to your area!
