Bookmarklet for Searching Google News

I am always messing around making tools for Google. And when I make them (and they work) I want to share them with you. First because you're the greatest readers on the planet and second because it seems silly to go to the trouble to make something and then be the only one who uses it. So here's a bookmarklet for Google News.

You can use the bookmarklet in two ways. First save it as a bookmark, preferably in a toolbar where you can quickly get to it. Then you may either highlight some text and click on the bookmarklet, or you can click on the bookmarklet and enter your search words. I made this for a friend who needed to quickly find pointers to press releases in Google News.

This bookmarklet works in IE.

This bookmarklet works in Opera (try it in Mozilla.)

Enjoy.
