We are continuing to update NSBNEWS.net to better inform and update you on what is happening here in your own backyard and around the world with news that we believe is relevant, fresh and thought provoking. Now you can sign up to get Breaking News Alerts directly to your e-mail whenever news develops, not only in words, but in sound and color. This sounds like the Twilight Zone, but with online technology, it's amazing how quickly we can now bring you the news. You can also express your thoughts in our new readers forum. Be rest assured, there is a filter to prevent personal attacks. We're also developing a media/marketing page to promote our Web site and to offer special advertising discounts for local merchants.
We're also in the process of developing VOLUSIANEWS.net, a countywide online newspaper that we believe will become the premiere alternative news source for Volusia County residents. Who needs to spend 75 cents for a newspaper with days-old news and the same tired formula when you can get you news for free when it actually happens.
What we don't have in the way of funding and corporate greed we make up for in hard work, strong awareness of the community and its needs.
As always, we are environmentally friendly and cost you nothing with not one, but two Web sites.
Please continue to enjoy NSBNEWS.net for greater News Smyrna Beach and we'll keep you posted on the launch of VOLUSIANEWS.net. With our country deep in recession and concern about job and family security, we need all the information we can get on how government is accountable to us. We are very excited about the two Web sites and the information potential they will provide for people here and around the world who care about Volusia County.
