Chamber Of Commerce Unveils New Blog

January 28, 2008

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce entered the blogosphere on Monday with the debut of ChamberPost -- a blog that will provide a public platform for issues of importance to the group's 3 million members.

Chamber Senior Vice President Tom Collamore said the online offering will "allow us to reach our audience as conventional methods of communication continue to change." The site is intended to be "a place where everyone can freely discuss topics relevant to businesses, and the challenges that face many business owners," the group said.

The blog will feature posts written by Chamber policy and issue experts and the organization's response to articles written by others, much like Op-Eds and Letters to the Editor that appear in the traditional media. "ChamberPost exemplifies our belief in straight talk and respectful engagement," Collamore said in a press release.
