Housing Chronicles to join new Forbes.com blog network

The Housing Chronicles Blog has been invited to join a new network soon to be launched by Forbes.com, the online website for Forbes magazine.

Entitled the Business and Financial Blog Network, although it will involve some targeted ads hosted by Forbes advertisers (which I promise to keep as unobtrusive as possible), the more important part of the deal will feature links from the various Forbes.com websites, which collectively rank among the most highly trafficked on the Internet (and ranking higher than the websites for Bloomberg, BusinessWeek, The Washington Post and the L.A. Times).

The network is expected to launch in the next 4-8 weeks and be officially announced next week.
