Google’s “Living Stories” was revealed last year in October by a post on the Official Google Blog. The google lab experiment aims to create a single page where readers can follow one story in the news, tracking new developments as they occur and are reported.

At the time, Google announced that it hoped to make the tool available to publishers outside of their initial test in Google Labs. Last week, this aim was realised, with the company announcing that the Living Stories tool is now open source – inviting all web developers to use their code to build their own pages with the new feature.

A ‘living story’ will feature a single web page with several standard features, continuously updated as more information comes in. Each page will begin with a summary at the top of the page, rewritten to reflect updates and to highlight the most important information. There will also be a running catalogue of information related to the story, ordered chronologically with precedence given to the latest information. A time line displayed on each page will provide an instant snapshot of the story’s most important developments.

“Proposed amendments the Broadcasting Services Act to introduce compulsory filtering is unlikely to exclude much of the unwanted content,” he said. “It is inapplicable to many of the current methods of online content distribution and has the potential to restrict Internet bandwidth.” Computer Research and Education Association (CORE), which represents Australasian computer science lecturers and professors, publicised its opposition to Internet content filtering at its recent annual general meeting.
