Jack Robinson, the editor of the Sacramento Business Journal, writes about the redesign of the weekly business newspaper owned by American City Business Journals.

“The changes in our weekly edition follow changes online that began a year ago. Among other steps, we have:

- Dramatically ramped up the number of stories we publish online every day
