From this page: "Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful" -- albeit sometimes with click-through fees...
Google Inc. plans to launch a service today that allows people to search for news articles dating as far back as the 1700s, a move that could broaden the market for news-archive services.
The Mountain View, Calif., Internet company is working with media outlets such as New York Times Co. and Washington Post Co., as well as news-retrieval services such as Reed Elsevier Inc.'s LexisNexis, to make articles available through the Google service. The Wall Street Journal and Factiva, a news-retrieval service jointly owned by Journal publisher Dow Jones & Co. and Reuters Group PLC, also are making articles searchable through the new Google service.
