I am new to News-O-Matic. I wanted to say hi. Are you a robot or human, because you are so smart!
Neena
Welcome to News-O-Matic! Hello to you, too! I am totally a human. I've spent a lot of years learning, and I still take time every day to keep learning. If I don't know something, I look for more information to understand it better.

Can we know more about the eco art?
Liam
I think it's cool that you're curious about the Vienna Climate Biennale, Liam! Make sure you read News-O-Matic's article "Vienna Swims in Eco Art!" and watch the video. You can also research more about the event on the internet with a teacher or other trusted adult.

Hi, I am Dean. Do you have any facts about frogs?
Dean
Hi, Dean. Here are some froggy facts! There are more than 5,000 frog species. Scientists also keep discovering new species. Frogs are famous for their long legs and jumping skills. Many kinds of frogs can leap more than 20 times the length of their body. 🐸

Hi Russ, I don't speak English very well and I'm from Türkiye. Do you happen to have any articles about Türkiye? If so, could you please tell me the title? Best regards,
Çağrı
Nice to meet you, Çağrı. Thanks for your question. Türkiye is such a beautiful country. 🇹🇷 We have many articles about it. One is called "A New Name for Turkey." Another is "The Longest Suspension Bridge!" I hope you enjoy those stories.

Hey Russ! My name is Vivienne and I'm doing an information text for school. And it's about qouka's! I'm having a hard time finding information about them. So, I was wondering if you could make a article about them. Sincerely,
Vivienne
Hi, Vivienne. I love quokkas! In fact, I saw some in real life when I visited Rottnest Island in Australia. There are a few stories about quokkas in News-O-Matic. But you must spell the word correctly in our search. It is QUOKKA.

What does population growth mean?
Kannon
Great question, Kannon! A population is the number of people or animals living in a place. Population growth happens when a population increases over a period of time! Imagine a small town. Ten people live there. A year later, there are twenty people. That means the town has increased! This is called population growth! 📈

Hi, Russ. How are you doing??

Hi, Russ. It's Nolan. I have a raven that comes to my house, but sometimes it brings us something.
Nolan
Hi, Nolan! That sounds pretty fun. Ravens are smart birds, and they remember people who treat them well. You must've been kind to that raven for it to bring you gifts! 🐦‍⬛

What's your favorite color?
Amelia
Pale blue is my favorite color. This is because of the way the Earth looks from space. It's sometimes called the Pale Blue Dot! 🌎

Dear Russ, I have been reading your article on the naked rat mole I was just wondering, where do they burrow themselves? Your friend,
Marnie
Thanks for asking this question, Marnie. Naked mole rats live in Africa, specifically in Ethiopia, Kenya, Djibouti and Somalia. They dig burrows in grassy, dry areas.

How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

How do we know when a hurricane happens?
David
Weather experts define hurricanes as a system of storms with winds circling at the center at speeds of 74 miles (119 km) per hour or more. They have special tools to measure wind speeds. Experts can also use tools in space to track how conditions like air pressure are affecting the creation of storms.
Russell Kahn
Hi, Russ! Can you please make an article about golf? For example, like how Rory McIlroy has completed the career grand slam and is looking to repeat. My favorite golfer is Rory McIlroy. I am from Ireland and my name is named after Rory McIlroy. Who's your favorite golfer?
Finnir
Hey there! Did you hear about Rory McIlroy's big win at the Masters this year? You can check out the article "Back-to-Back Masters Champ!" I'm not sure who my favorite golfer is. But it's been fun to watch some of the top players, including Rory McIlroy, Scottie Scheffler, and Collin Morikawa! 🏌️
