Post by: Diesel on February 27, 2013, 11:39:09 AM
Just looking for a great news site to log on to (and maybe with the phone as well when toruing) to chk the usual National and International Breaking News stories - as well as sport and weather....

sooooo....

Do you know of a great, easy to use, easy to navigate internet news site I can save as a favourite?

Paste a link to it so we can have a gander. Is yours better than this one?

www.news.com.au (http://www.news.com.au/)

Cheers, Diesel

Just stay away from Australian politics, Brock.

Ninemsn is good for breaking news and "off-beat" stuff.
ABConline is good for more authoritative material.
I love their iView to catch missed programmes.

I hardley worry about the news while at home so even less so while on the road.

The weather.......well look down the road in front of you and look up at the sky.........

But best weather info is www.bom.gov.au (http://www.bom.gov.au)..........that's where everyone else gets it from.

News .......  http://www.abc.net.au/news/ (http://www.abc.net.au/news/)  for the national stuff.........select "local" from menu to choose the state stuff. (your tax dollar at work....lol)
