A video will appear on Google News.
One of the most popular, oldest and controversial Google services is search by news. As you know, Google is preaching a special approach to filling its aggregator. They basically refuse to buy quality content from copyright holders, so Google News is inferior to Yahoo News in almost all respects: in terms of quality of materials, attendance, and multimedia content. What can we say, if in the plots of Google News there are still no videos. However, this absurdity will soon be corrected using YouTube.
Project Manager Nathan Stoll just now told about the plans for the development of Google News.
Nathan Stoll warned that it was not in the rules of Google to announce certain new features, but he spoke quite clearly about video content. He said that the Google News philosophy is to provide readers with comprehensive coverage of each news story. Given the growing popularity of Internet video, it is very tempting to use it. That is why the Google News team is now collaborating with YouiTube programmers.
Probably, television news stories from the largest TV channels will appear on Google News through YouiTube. At least, American television companies are already expressing a lively interest in this. Many, as Nathan Stoll hints, are ready to provide content for free, just to get an additional influx of visitors to their sites.

In addition to video, another direction in the development of which Google News developers are interested is functions familiar to social media, for example, tags and categories edited by users. Until now, nothing like this on Google News was not. At the moment, the maximum interaction of the service with users is only in the fact that the user can customize the appearance of the page to his own taste, filter out sources and news topics. Not so long ago, users received a personal history (with ratings, bookmarks, recommendations, and other attributes of Web History). This technology provides a means of collective content filtering and improves the quality of ranking news stories, but still it was created to search the web and does not work well in real time on fresh content. It can not provide the level of feedback that social media users give in the first minutes after the publication of the material. It is quite possible that some functions from social media may appear on Google News, although Nathan Stoll could not promise this.
