Monitoring blogs is a snap with new Newstex Blogs

Today, blogs are often the first to break major stories and provide an important heads-up on public perception. Newstex Blogs on Demand, now on the LexisNexis services, provides full-text blog content for over 200 blogs initially with more to come. Each blog is tagged and available full-text so that company names, stock tickers, and key executives are fully searchable.

For a comprehensive list of Newstex Blogs now on the LexisNexis services, see http://www.lexisnexis.com/infopro/training/reference/Research/Newstexblogslist.pdf

Go to the LN Searchable Directory of Online Sources at http://web.nexis.com/sources/. In the “Publisher/Provider” search box, type newstex to retrieve the Newstex Blog sources. Click on the source links in the results for additional information.
