Google enables way-back machine with news archives

It’s pretty fun to be able to perform keyword searches on news from 1890 from the New York Times and The Washington Post. Now that Google has launched their News Archives function you can your search these rags and others to your heart’s content. Unfortunately, many of the links will take you to paid news archives services that won’t let you see the full content of the page your search found, but hey, it’s a start.
