What Business.updates.com actually is . . .

I posted on Wednesday asking what business.updates.com really was.  Lo and behold, I received an e-mail from the guy responsible for the site at CNET; question answered. 
 
Here is the body of the e-mail:
 
I'm the guy responsible for Business.Updates.com. It is in fact a business news, blog aggregator that also distributes content from my primary product: www.bnet.com. Here's the boilerplate on BNET:
 
"BNET is dedicated to helping busy leaders more quickly and easily solve important business problems.

BNET also publishes the monthly BNET Business Interest Index which illustrates important topics and trends among its registered user base of business leaders.

 

BNET's audience is made up of management and senior executives representing a variety of business functions at the Fortune and Global 500. BNET's partners include leaders in academia, business publishing, management consulting and professional services.
