Yahoo adds Blogs to its news section
------------------------------------
Yahoo's online news search tool yesterday added internet journal entries as a supplement to professional media offerings. Under Yahoo's new approach, a keyword search for online news includes a list of relevant web logs, or blogs, displayed in a box to the right of the results collected from mainstream journalism.
Google, which runs the internet's leading search engine, so far has treated blogs differently. Google last month introduced a blog search engine that does nothing but sift through blogs. Meanwhile, Google's news section continues to focus on material from mainstream media.
Although many top bloggers lack formal journalism training, it has not stopped them from building loyal readerships or breaking news that the mainstream media either missed or ignored. But the 'blogosphere' is also filled with rumours and inaccuracies.
Yahoo's news users can view blog results exclusively by clicking on the 'More blog results' option. That option also shows relevant images posted on Yahoo's photo-sharing site, Flickr.
