Washington Post updates online biz section

According to a Business Wire press release, The Washington Post is launching a new business and economy section front on its Web site today that will integrate reporting, analysis and multimedia coverage of the financial mess and Washington's plan to deal with it. 

The section highlights news analysis from well-known columnists, including Pulitzer Prize winner Steve Pearlstein, top video coverage and live blogging from the day's financial hearings and briefings, continuously updated stock market information, special investigative reports, and resources for business leaders and investors.

The revamped site will also feature a new blog, called "Small Change" that will shed light on survival tactics for the downturn. The bloggers, Ylan Mui and Nancy Trejos, plan to highlight the "resourceful ways people are making do, reinventing themselves and sometimes even prospering."
