You may have noticed a few small changes at InvestigateWest. Our front page has been updated to give you the latest news from both InvestigateWest blogs -- Western Exposure and Dateline Earth. As we add additional content, it will show up here as well. I think this will do a better job of highlighting the interesting information we link to or report every day. Please let me know what you think.
As a side note, we've updated our site to link to TweepML, a language and service created by Seattle entrepreneur Marcello Calbucci. TweepML allows you to subscribe to a group of twitter feeds all at once. In our case, it will subscribe you to InvestigateWest's feed and those of our staff. TweepML is a great new service, and we hope you like it.
