It's an exciting time for newspapers as they are discovering new uses for the latest and biggest tool in the tool box. The Web has provided news agencies with a versatile platform that is broadening the role of journalism. The BG News has launched a new Web site that showcases some of the exciting ways the Internet is helping newspapers better serve their readers.

We haven't changed the name of our publication, just the name of our Web site. The title "BG Views" simply implies that it's not just The BG News contributing. We're pretty tired of talking to ourselves. Our goal is to create a network for our readers to easily consume the news and to also post what they believe is worth writing about.

Eventually, the "communities" portion of the site will take on a life of its own while we continue to deliver the news surrounding the campus and Bowling Green communities daily. We at The BG News hope you will find BG Views much more appealing and easier to navigate than our former site. Now The BG News really can be your news on the BG Views network.
