News is very sought after because news mean information and information is 'gold' nowadays. Everything might come in useful, if not state affairs you might get ganked over, at the very least the small social gossip you would do well to know in order to understand what your friends/ female colleagues are talking about using cool updated expressions like "Yeah, totally" and "uh-um, girl, you know it!"

Could you imagine not knowing everything about
what interests you and going on without that vital information? What, you mean Kael wiped that silly guild because the tank couldn't keep agro? OMG! Of course, that's what gets me fired up, you might be interested in the latest political gossip about who is leaving what party and why or whether the weather will be better tomorrow so that you might go to work just in your underwear (it's a long shot but you might).

The people over at Google, besides being extremely well paid, have an interesting addendum to their contracts, that 20% of the time they work, they get to dedicate to personal projects that might later turn to be interesting for the Mountain View based giant. Marián Dvorský, Software Engineer, just finished his project and it made it out to the world: it's Zprávy Google, which means Google News.

The Czech edition of the News can be accessed at news.google.cz and it aggregates stories from hundreds of news sources in Czech language. The outlay of the site is similar to the classical one that you have this far probably grown fond of with the exception on the Health section that incorporates travel and lifestyle articles as well.

A welcomed addition to all you, Czech language readers out there, all there's left to do now is to enjoy… outjoy…. Enjoy. Silly medical humor there, just ignore it if you didn't find it funny.
