WNU Editor: A fascinating topic .... how long does it take for news of a terror attack to spread on Google .... or for any other news worthy incident. The answer is minutes. Unfortunately .... aside from this Time post, there is not much coverage on this topic even though it can be applied to other situations .... business news and its impacts on the market as an example.
On a personal note .... I use Google news on a regular basis to scan for news stories and trending developments for this blog. The key is to ask the right question .... and if you ask the right question you can then have results or an understanding of what is happening before 99.99% of the world does.
