  7. (Nov. 9, 2009)‏ Murdoch could block Google searches entirely http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2009/nov/09/murdoch-google “In recent months, Murdoch his lieutenants have stepped up their war of words with Google, accusing it of 'kleptomania' and acting as a 'parasite' for including News Corp content in its Google News pages. But asked why News Corp executives had not chosen to simply remove their websites entirely from Google's search indexes – a simple technical operation – Murdoch said just such a move was on the cards.”

By Oliver J Chiang http://www.forbes.com/2009/12/02/rupert-murdoch-publishers-technology-internet-google.html “On Tuesday, it launched 'First Click,' a program that allows publishers to limit users' free access to no more than five paid articles per day.”

By Oliver J Chiang http://www.forbes.com/2009/12/02/rupert-murdoch-publishers-technology-internet-google.html “'Some publishers have asked: Should we put up pay walls or keep our articles in Google News and Google Search? In fact, they can do both--the two aren't mutually exclusive,' wrote Josh Cohen, a senior business product manager at Google.” “On Wednesday, Google released another new feature that allows publishers to opt out of Google News.”

By Oliver J Chiang http://www.forbes.com/2009/12/02/rupert-murdoch-publishers-technology-internet-google.html “[...] others think the move is a significant initial victory for publishers. 'By playing hardball, [Murdoch] appears to have got the Google to blink,' says Rory Cellan-Jones of BBC News.”

  12. Google - “First Click Free” program

  13. Google - “First Click Free” program (from the Google News blog)‏ http://googlenewsblog.blogspot.com/2009/12/update-to-first-click-free.html “Google has strict policies against what's known as cloaking: showing one web page to the crawler that indexes it but then a different page to a user. We do this so that users aren't deceived into clicking through to a site that's not what they were expecting.” “Our crawlers can't fill out a registration or payment form to see what's behind a site's paywall, but they need access to the information in order to index it.”

  14. First Click Free. “Participating publishers allow the crawler to index their subscription content, then allow users who find one of those articles through Google News or Google Search to see the full page without requiring them to register or subscribe. The user's first click to the content is free, but when a user clicks on additional links on the site, the publisher can show a payment or registration request.” “Previously, each click from a user would be treated as free. Now, we've updated the program so that publishers can limit users to no more than five pages per day without registering or subscribing.”

  15. Also – Google will crawl and index any preview pages - (“generally the headline and first few paragraphs of a story”) “This means that our crawlers see the exact same content that will be shown for free to a user.” (ie it's not cloaking)‏ “We will then label such stories as 'subscription' in Google News. The ranking of these articles will be subject to the same criteria as all sites in Google, whether paid or free. Paid content may not do as well as free options, but that is not a decision we make based on whether or not it's free. It's simply based on the popularity of the content with users and other sites that link to it.”

  17. RUPERT MURDOCH: I don't think we’ll charge them, they just will say no. We’ll be very happy if they just publish our headline and maybe a sentence or two, and that's it. And followed by a subscription form for The Journal. (The Kalb Report – transcript April 6, 2010)‏
