    checks it out.


    Nice. I like it. What is the rating based on? And how are the titles decided? None of the titles were wrong, but some left out the game name because they chose a part of the text that didn't include it, which makes it hard for scanning.

    NOTE: Never looked at Google News, so I'm not sure how it compares.

    Rating: average time between first and last occurance of the link on the news sites, minus n times number of hits.

    Titles: If there are four hits, the longest hit name is used. The name/title is the title of the actual link found on the particular news site.

    Very cool!

    Google News is a brilliant site for news, would love to see G-Look take off like that!

    Hey how about whipping up a RSS feed for G-Look?

    Actually another idea would be to split up the site similar to Google News... like having a General Top Rated Gaming News section, PC Gaming news, Console News.. etc..

    Yeah, I'm currently playing with the idea of spidering not only the front pages of these news sites but following the article links as well... I just need to think about it a bit more.

    Still, it's a toy I'm playing with right now. Not more, not less. Nevertheless - glad you guys like it. ;)
