Waking up and flipping through the newspaper is second nature for most of us.
For the news junkie, reading one newspaper is just a prelude.
Blogs, Twitter, headlines masquerading as RSS feeds, and startup pages have taken over.
Will newspapers survive or will they end up as fish wrapper?
Even now, when information is just a keyword away, newspapers have retained their charm.
We may not flip the paper pages as often, but we do punch their online ones.
With a click we can see what’s happening in some other part of the world.
Newspaper reporting is dyed in the wool reporting.
As opposed to blogs which can be more personally expressed.
Online newspaper websites are great sources for research because of their archival news stocks.
These five online newspaper websites are not standalone news sites.
They are a jumping point to find local and national newspapers around the world.
Newspapers.com
Newspapers.com is not a very attractive site.
The site’s purpose is to connect the reader to US and world newspapers.
World newspaper links are arranged by area and can be further selected by country from a dropdown.
US newspapers can be selected by state from a dropdown to find local newspapers.
it’s possible for you to dropdown to search for weeklies or dailies.
Newspapers.com is a simple listing site for newspapers, radio stations, movie showtimes and jobs.
It’s a place to get to know some links on newspapers that cover specific areas around the globe.
Onlinenewspapers.com
Onlinenewspapers.com takes a similar dropdown selection approach to newspapers and magazines around the world.
The Paperboy.com
A listing of 6,371 newspapers is too much for even the diehard news junkie.
So, it’s better if you know your subject of interest.
That will help you to narrow down the news source when you select magazines by subject from a dropdown.
The website also has a Google Custom search with an advanced search option.
Newspapers24.com
Newspapers24 is an even larger index of worldwide newspapers.
To top all that, it’s possible for you to even browse by language.
Searching by country gives you not only the land’s national newspapers but also the local regional ones.
When it comes to newspapers and news, Newseum also has a section called -Today’s Front Pages.
Newseum presents these daily newspaper front pages in their original, unedited form.
The display amounts to 743 front pages from 78 countries.
Clicking on the thumbnail takes you to the full size view.
you could follow the newspaper site’s link and go to the official newspaper website.
A PDF link downloads the front page in the format.
Each link brings up the front pages from varied newspapers which have covered the event.
But access to a global perspective on news is a serious research tool.
