Like the AJAX-y news box at the top of the site? You can get your own, courtesy of the Google News Bar Wizard.

It has a full API and can be displayed in a couple different formats (so far, vertical or horizontal).

If you use the wizard, it generates a bit of HTML that you can just add to your existing site (provided you have a Google account and API key for your site). There are some interesting possibilities with this. For instance, altering the news displayed based on a search performed in your blog. For now, I’ll just keep playing with the keywords to try and find the best news mix.
