Website Books and News

Books and news for author websites and writers' blogsEarlier this month, the Google Librarian Central announced a couple of new features we can use on our websites. In And now, News and Books search results, Peter Deng introduced:

Yesterday, we launched two new cut-and-paste solutions that let you easily enhance your web pages. First, you can display news headlines with a Google News bar. You define what topics you're interested in, and it will display relevant and timely news headlines and snippets. Second, you can create a dynamic bookshelf with books covers that link to the online versions in Google Book Search.
Those book search results can be displayed horizontally and vertically. Let's say you've written a series of books on knitting, display them on your website easily with this Google tool. See what I mean? Unfortunately Blogger.com doesn't allow script tags within a post, so you'll have to visit the Google page to see results. I think I've seen this feature in the columns of other's blogs. Raise your hand if you're using it, please.
