More Google Pwnage Increase the size of your Attachments

Surely anyone who uses MSN must be an idiot!!!

I noticed that Google News now allows you to customize your news page. Along with arranging the sections however you please, you can have custom sections too.

And as it's Google, it just works. Every day I find another reason to love Google

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Actually, that's the wrong way to do it.

Current layout:
Standard > Canada > World
Standard > Canada > Canada
Standard > Australia > Australia
Standard > India > India
Standard > New Zealand > New Zealand
Standard > UK > UK

Yeah, I know the difference between news.google.com and news.google.ca. Accidentally went to the non-localized one.

Enter the AD-FREE zone

This is a good change. I have a couple of custom searches set up.

The only feature that I would like added is the ability to sort each section based upon reverse chronological date instead of relevance.
