Subject: News search not working
I use Google News on a daily basis for my work.  This week the search
function is totally malfunctioning.  Searches come up with zero
results, but when refreshed several times, the search finally will
yeild results.  However, when clicking to view the next page of
results, the results disappear.  Any idea on when this will be fixed
so that I can resume my work as usual?

Also, you need to fix the advanced search for dates when switching to
a new year...  In January, you should be able to specify dates between
December and January, but this was not possible this month.  Advanced
search only allowed searches between January and January.

Thanks.

The same goes for me. How do we fix it?

There seem to be problems today and yesterday with blank fields.
The contact google form is also no longer available (or I can't find
it today).
My peresoonal fileds are not showing up anymore.
My guess is the googlegods are aware and working on this, or perhaps
we have been upgraded.

Thanks everyone for letting us know about this. Search should be
working now -- please let us know if you experience any more blank
results pages. Thanks!

I still have some but not as often as before. Perhaps those of us who
frequently research the same keywords are now being seen as spammers
or something.

Sorry, the problem is still very much present. I tried doing a search
for "Volkswagen" this morning and it claimed there were no results.

True. If you triple or quadruple click the link though, you may get
it. (If that means something for the tech support folks) This is how I
have been limping through my daily research.
