Loren Baker at Search Engine Journal reports today the addition of news to Google's mobile offerings, bringing the informational goodness of Google News to cell phones, train stations, and waiting rooms all over the country.

The Google Mobile Blog provides the following statement:

"Google News for mobile devices keeps you updated on current news articles when you're on the go. You can access top headlines, browse through news categories, or search for exactly the stories you want — all in a phone-friendly format that's easy to read and navigate. All you need is a web-enabled phone."

Loren goes on to report that Google News Mobile is currently only available in English but they do plan to expand to other languages. Furthermore, unlike the desktop browser based version of Google News, Google News Mobile does not list all of the sites in the Google News index but instead links only to publishers with pages specifically designed for viewing on mobile phones. However, if users have a PDA, Smartphone or a phone or mobile device that can view HTML pages, then they can easily view all news that is also available on Google Desktop news.
