Eastside Business Online E-News
April 10, 2009

 

 Dear Dmitriy: 

As you may have heard (or read),
the last issue of Eastside Business newspaper (April 2009) has been printed.  I am currently looking for a working partner to improve and maintain the news site at EastsideBusinessJournal.com and hopefully continue on with this e-newsletter that goes out to so many loyal subscribers like yourself.

The good news is that beginning in May, we will be once again be producing Bellevue Business Journal

The newspaper business is changing and BBJ is leading the charge.  Besides working to improve our publication and focus, BBJ is already working to serve our readers and advertising clients through the use of Social Networking tools, including Twitter, LinkedIn, FaceBook, various blogs and of course, Eastside Entrepreneurs.

I look forward to continuing to adapt to best serve our readers and advertising clients.  If you have any comments or suggestions, I'd love to hear them.
