Living Stories are Alive and Well

About: This blog is all about the new "Living Stories" program that is working with Google. Down below is the video that explains what the living stories imply and also some question that I have answered about this new news source.







How is the Google Living Stories approach different than other news sources?
Answer: Goggle Living Stories is different from other news sources by this gives you full coverage of any story all in one place, instead of jumping from site to site. Also each time you refresh the page or go back to it, updates of the story are given, where like other sources you have to wait hours or even days for updates.


Do you think this approach to stories will help to reduce bias in the news? Why or Why Not?
Answer: In some ways I do believe that this approach will reduce bias in the news because now that you have the full story instead of bits and pieces of it, now people can know the whole truth at once. Plus this source is updated all the time so now you can get faster coverage of the story as it happens.


What features would you like to see added to Google's project?
Answer: I would like the see maybe some live video feed as the story is happening, or some replays of something that has happened. Also it'd be pretty cool if you could interact with people on here, like a little chat room or something.
