Oregon Business hires five bloggers as it expands online presence

Linda Baker, the editor of Oregon Business, writes about how the magazine is expanding its online presence.

Baker writes, “I’m excited to announce a new OregonBusiness.com blogger network, featuring original reporting and analysis by journalists and subject experts.

“So far, we have signed five new bloggers (who join longtime contributor Tom Cox), with plans to grow the roster in the coming months. We think you will find their insights to be enlightening, provocative  — and a must read.

“Other OB digital and mobile initiatives are underway.

“We know our magazine readers are looking for in-depth analysis and perspective; we also know readers are on their laptops, tablets and other mobile devices throughout the week —  often looking for quick sharp takes on the news. To make our mobile platform more user friendly, our in-house tech guru, web production manager Bjorn Vandervoo, has made some improvements to the Oregon Business mobile platform.

“The pages now load faster, the presentation is more streamlined and easier to read, and the homepage news feed is updated throughout the day, pulling in stories from across the website.”
