I was wondering what news from what websites can I publish on my website but that is not a criminal act. I'm short of stories and I just created a topic menu on:http://busovaca.awardspace.com
Thanks

You can't directly copy news stories, because that would be breaching Copyright laws.
The major news agencies (Reuters, BBC News, possibly CNN?) tend to have an RSS or XML feed, which you could include on your website, as the links to the news stories go to their website rather than your own.

But I also saw that websites like www.afterdawn.com are publishing stories that were written by other news providers like registrer.com, msnbc.com, Reuters.com, etc. and they just put link to source below the story.

Unless you have a written statement from the Website / News Agency, confirming that you are allowed to reproduce the article either in part or full, then it is a breach of copyright whether you provide a source link or not.
However... You can re-write the article yourself, as long as you don't copy it directly... So you effectively write the article, but base it on the facts stated in the original copy... You then would need to include a link to the original story declaring where the facts/figures/inspiration came from.
By all means, go ahead and copy the article if you wish, but as I said - unless you either
A) Get a written statement from the news agency/website; or
B) The website has a written statement
Saying that you can reproduce the articles in full or in part, then you're leaving yourself wide open to prosecution under Copyright laws.

There is a host who provides you with news and such, that you can put in your own template. I have played with it very little, but you can feel free to check them out. www.1and1.com

Well I guess I need to remove content from website but where can I get source for stories?
<br>
Maybe do I need to send for some website supporters an email in which I will ask for permission to publish their stories?

Why not just provide links to news agencies with an abstract?
<dl>
<dt><a href="http://cnn.com">Headline</a></dt>
<dd><a href="http://cnn.com">Today, in Iraq, U.S. Forces....</a></dd>
</dl>
The abstract can be two or three sentences long, and in the exact wording of the news story.
(If all you're doing is replicating news found on established news carriers, where people would normally visit, then you've got to wonder about the necessity of your website, or at least this section of it.)
Good Luck -

You would be surprised that many will allow it. Also, you can see about publishing the first paragraph with a link to the main story.

Wait and see what their response is. The worst they can say is "no", but like LeeU said - many of them will say it's ok as long as you provide a link to the original article, and you only reproduce a small amount of the article... It's free marketing for the news agency site, and everyone wants as much publicity for as little money nowadays.

I have for now found articles on:http://www.certificate.net/wwio/topics.shtml until I get permissions from other sites this will be it. This site stores all interesting articles from other users maybe can be helpfull for others that need topics.

Maybe you could have a look at press releases rather than news articles. You might be able to turn press releases into news articles.

Maybe you are thinking of putting news like ones in http:busovaca.awardspace.com/news.html Well I have that from moreover news but will it be more useful to have data on your server? So when I create a search engine it would be useful to search for that stories.

exodus, you could 'bookmark' each news article you display... But you have to be VERY careful in terms of copyright when copying ANY article from ANY site...
For example... Reuters might tell me that I can display their articles on my site. That doesn't mean I can copy them though...
Copyright laws also tend to dictate that storage in a database is illegal unless specified otherwise. Creating the site so that you're copying news stories onto your server will be "storing the files in a database or other information retrieval system"...
Why would you need a search engine on your web site for these news articles? The major web search engines have their own (more reliable than your server and system presumably) news sources - Google, Yahoo!, MSN... go onto their homepages, hit News, type in your keyword, hit Search.... bingo - thousands and thousands of pages on the article you want.
Why would people go to a site that only offers them one article, when there is so much more information available to them on these other search engines? What is your site providing that these search engines aren't?

Why aren't you just using RSS. I know not all sites use it but most news sites that are worth using do. This iste allows you to register and copy and paste the code into your site. http://www.rssfeedreader.com/ all you need to do is find the RSS feed address. go to the web site you want source from and do a search for rss feed, typically you can find it somewhere.

Well all done. I think I am finished with topics I have put some sories that could be helpful in some ways considering internet problems and some other stories. I have added search even even though this is some kind small website but maybe from some help. I think I will from now on just keep adding interesting stuff.
