I think that kind of help would be quite useful. Thanks for reading and commenting, John.

Newsburst is labelled a preview release because it's early. We're still working on it, actively (and even faster since everyone found it last night! ;-). The registration requirements are real, but were as you say for a short time earlier this morning. As to the wasted space... once you add sources, and use the application, I think it's not so wasted. Time will tell... but I think you're right that we could probably do more. The Help information is frankly, insufficient... that will change. I love learning what mistakes we're making, so we can fix them. Thanks, John Roberts CNET News.com product development I love your enthusiasm, and your early review (probably the first).
