Subject: Newspaper in Compost Pile?

Reduce, reuse, recycle...

Any thoughts on whether shredded newspaper would add any value to a compost
pile?  How long until it breaks down?  I've heard of using newspaper sheets as
mulch to block weeds, and that it breaks down after a while, so I wondered if
it would work as compost.

Thanks, 

Matt
