AllInOneNews is the largest news metasearch engine in the world, connecting to over 1,000 news sites over 150 countries.

This paper also reports the results of a comparative evaluation of three commercial news search systems, one search engine -Google News and two metasearch engines -Mamma News and AllInOneNews. Several measures such as effectiveness, diversity and time-sensitivity are used to perform the comparison. Another contribution of this paper is that we introduce a novel scheme to compare multiple news search systems in a combined measure that takes both relevance and time-sensitivity of retrieved information into consideration.
