@blivit42: No, the "Many more" button does not prompt you for anything, it just shows the url format that shirque gives above for past dates. But as he points out you need to manually enter the url, and then only see a partial list of that day's topics. If you want to move to the next calendar day, you have to type in the new url, i.e. there is no previous day/next day button. So for me that I am trying to read the topics starting from some date in the past and working my way to today, that is now impossible.
Today I was reading the news of 2010-12-10 (yeah, I have a lot to catch up with). When I clicked to get the news from 2010-12-11 I was redirected to today's news and for the life of me I cannot see how I can get back to that date using some on-screen control. I hope I have missed something because if this option is not available then I'm outta here. The "Many more" button link at the bottom of the page shows how you can get articles from a specific date but you have to type this yourself. And from there you can't move to the previous or next date without retyping the url. That's not right surely...
