In addition to the new issue being available, we also have a new feature on the website called BIN Extras.  It’s a collection of extra info, photos, and other media that we really enjoyed learning about during our research for the articles, but just didn’t have the room to include in the printed magazine.  Consider it the “Special Features” of the magazine (like on a DVD). It will be updated every time the new issue comes out.

This time around we have recipes from Cafe Borgia, Indiana Society of Chicago sponsors and honorees, and extra info about blogging–what services to use to create your blog, as well as a survey on the habits of bloggers. Check out Being Productive, the article on business blogging, and if it peaks your interest, the Extras on blogging will be great additional info for starting a blog.

As a quick reference, here are again some free blogging services:

• Blogger
• Wordpress
• Typepad

Blogging search engines:

• Technorati
• Ice Rocket

Remember to use these search engines to see what’s being said about you and your company.

That’s all for now…I hope you enjoy the new issue and new Extras!
