Talking about MSN Newsbot Revamped

Several of you have emailed/IM'd me in the last couple of weeks to talk about how you've disliked the changed being made to MSN Newsbot on MSNBC.  I've agreed with that view, but it looks like they were just tweaking things "live" in advance of the revamp.

Check out the updated MSN Newsbot on MSNBC @ http://newsbot.msn.com.  I only have one major request...and that is that they add a "sort by date" or allow some way for users to know that the items they are seeing are the freshest available.  While MSN Newsbot has more content sources than Google News, the lack of control is unnerving to someone like myself who searches for particular news items several times a day.  This is a feature that the Google News Beta has.

To my Canadian friends/visitors, check out http://ca.newsbot.msn.com/!

Here is the word from the official MSN Search blog

Newsbot Revamped

As some of you may have noticed, MSN Newsbot, our personalized news aggregator, has undergone some changes as a part of the MSN Search launch.  The UI is now integrated with the search product.  In the US this means moving easily between Newsbot Search and our partner MSNBC.  For all our international markets Newsbot is wholly integrated into Search.
