By Frank J. DeCandido

BusinessWeek online is a terrific site for your bookmark collection if you need to find out the latest technology news. The site provides current coverage of the technology field, including in-depth special reports, discussion forums, product reviews, columns and articles from the related print publication. Other features of the site include an e-biz section and Microsoft Watch link, which closely follows the most recent developments concerning the giant software maker.

The product review section includes product reviews by PC World magazine as well as BusinessWeek’ s own reviews. There are also sections on Internet security and science and health. The site includes an extensive science department with commentary, news analysis and special beats, and stories from CNET News.com are also available.

The site includes an electronic form that can be filled out to receive four free trial issues of BusinessWeek. Very well laid out and easy to navigate, BusinessWeek online will grant you access to most articles; however, there are some areas of the site that are subscriber-only eligible and there are some interruptions for advertisements. If you wish to subscribe, click on the Register/Subscribe link at the top left-hand corner of the page.

If you are searching for a comprehensive list of technology articles and information, BusinessWeek online has what you are looking for.
