Google News Archive Search

Google has launched the news archive search service recently. This is to search the old news articles from multiple sources on world wide web. How old? As old as 200 years of news, it's amazing, and very useful tool indeed.

"The goal here is to be able to explore history as it unfolded," said Anurag Acharya, an engineer at Google and one of the team behind the project.

"It's fascinating to see how people's attitudes and emotions have changed through time."

I have searched the news about U Aung san in 1947 timelines and got to the article "End of Bogyoke" on Time.com on which it's described how Bogyoke was assassinated in details at that times.
