Promising News: BizJournals May Have Corrected Its Search Watch Service Blunder

Last month I wrote about the fact that a free online news service I had been using for years was summarily cancelled without notifying subscribers: BizJournals Abandons Search Watch E-mail Alert Access: A Disappointing Decision and Poorly Handled Since I had blogged touting the service only a few weeks earlier (Free News Alerts from BizJournals.com: Better Business News), it was an even greater disappointment.

It now appears that BizJournals.com has reinstated the free service.

I have not gotten a new Search Watch e-mail lately, but the links in previous e-mails now take me to complete stories instead of teasers like they did in August -- a promising development. I'm waiting for my next Search Watch e-mail before getting too excited.
