1. The way Google Living Search approaches the news differently is that they set it up in a way that it is constantly updated. They have the timeline for people to look at and they can read the parts that interest them instead of having to read the whole article and maybe getting nothing out of it that they wanted. They unify coverage on a single page with a consistent URL and they organize information by developments in the story. They also call your attention to changes in the story since the last time you viewed the page so you can easily find new material.

2. I think that this approach is trying to reduce bias in the news, but I'm not sure that it will because they are only pulling information from certain news groups. When you are getting information from only certain places it is hard to make it unbias. They are getting information from more than one source but these sources all seem to have the same view on the subject matters. I think that as the project develops more than it will become less bias.

3. I don't think there is really anything Google needs to add to their pages. I think that they sort of already have to much going on in one place. They need to make it more organized. It isn't hard to follow what is going on on the page but there is a lot going on and if it was a little more organized it may be easier to follow and look at everything.
