Oregonian starts blog allowing businesses to post “news”

The Oregonian has revamped its online business news site, including starting a blog that allows businesses to post their own news.

Therese Bottomly, managing editor of readership and standards, writes, “Newly redesigned, the business news website at oregonlive.com/business more boldly displays stories, videos and photos. It remains the home for updated business news stories, The Oregonian’s subject-specific blogs — Silicon Forest, Complaint Desk, Window Shop and It’s Only Money (on hiatus for a few weeks) — and calendar listings.

“The website also adds Business Watch, a public blog. A free service, the blog provides company leaders a way to show off the work they do, through new product information, personnel moves and business events. There’s already one entry to check out.”
