The search engine, which has revolutionised the way consumers access news through its ranked news searches on the internet, is working on new software that will allow newspapers to charge users for certain online content using a system of micro-payments.

It comes just a month after News Corporation chairman Rupert Murdoch raised the industry bar by saying that he hoped all of his major newspapers – including the Times and the Sun – would be charging for online content by the end of June 2010.

Profiting from the internet while at the same time not alienating online readers is seen by most in the newspaper industry as the “holy grail”, amid falling print readership and declining advertising spend by traditional advertisers.

The only newspapers to currently successfully charge readers for content are the Financial Times and the Wall Street Journal, although both offer an element of free coverage to occasional readers.

Google’s disclosure was made in a response to the Newspaper Association of America which asked a number of technology companies for proposals on how to generate revenues from online content.

The Google document suggests that its micro-payment system – which would involve readers being charged per article, potentially for exclusive news stories, longer features or columns – will be part of its existing Google Checkout payment system, which is a competitor to PayPal.

The Google doodle featuring a UFO sucking up one of the Google Os, which linked to the search ‘unexplained phenomenon’

The latest doodle, an adapted version of its logo that appears on its home page, prompted widespread confusion and speculation among the internet community.

Doodles are usually used to mark holidays, famous scientists or thinkers, or anniversaries, but the latest one, was a picture of a UFO sucking up one of Google’s Os with a tractor beam.

Google did nothing to end the speculation with a statement saying: “We consider the second ‘o’ critical to user recognition of our brand and pronunciation of our name. We are actively looking into the mysterious tweet that has appeared on the Google twitter stream and the disappearance of the ‘o’ on the Google home page. We hope to have an update in the coming weeks.”

As there appeared to be no obvious event however, some thought it was a sign the Earth had made contact with aliens. Others suggested it was merely a publicity stunt for new sci-fi film District 9, and another said it was the anniversary of the Voyager I spacecraft.

The truth, however, was that it was marking the 20th anniversary of Japanese video game Zero Wing.

Google had later provided a clue on its Twitter page, posting: “1.12.12 25.15.21.18 15 1.18.5 2.5.12.15.14.7 20.15 21.19?.

When the numbers are replaced by the corresponding letters of the alphabet, it read “All your O are belong to us”, a reference to Zero Wing’s notoriously poor Japanese to English translation.

In the opening cut scene of the video game, a character says “All your base are belong to us”.

The phrase was made popular by the Something Awful website, spreading through a flash animation with the slogan in it.

It became a viral internet hit between 2000 and 2002 and Google resurrected the classic example of “gamer humour” for Zero Wing’s birthday.
