Google and old newspapers

Has anyone seen this?

Ran across this tonight, Google is archiving newspapers.

Might be interesting for research.

Cool. I had subscribed to an online newspaper archive but they raised their prices dramatically so I let it lapse. This is so much better....FREE! Plenty of Pittsburgh papers from the brief look I took.
Thanks,
Al

Unfortunately, Google has canceled the project:
