Getting News on the Go


There's one more way to get the latest Google News headlines, and it doesn't involve your computer. That's right, you can receive Google News headlines on your cellular phone or other mobile device. It's a great way to keep up-to-date when you're on the go.

You access Google Mobile News by going to www.google.com on your mobile phone and clicking News. You can then browse the top headlines by section, or search for news stories as you would on the Google News web page. Learn more by clicking the Mobile News link on the main Google News page.
