Rockville Central Joins Local News Startup TBD.com
We are proud to announce our new partnership with >TBD.com, a startup local news and information site focused on the greater DC area. TBD.com is an initiative of Allbritton Communications — the organization that started Politico.com and that owns WJLA. We are ecstatic to be a part of TBD.com’s community network and especially flattered they reached out to us. (Here is a good article that tells you more about TBD.com.)
In their announcement, TBD.com describes Rockville Central this way:
Brad Rourke and Cindy Cotte Griffiths keep Rockville from getting lost among the other news in the region by highlighting news stories alongside opinion pieces and guest commentary. Rockville Central just celebrated its third birthday.
We thank them for the nice words!
TBD.com will run Rockville Central content on its site, and we may run their content here, too. But the primary relationship is that we are providing the view-from-Rockville.
What this means for Rockville Central readers is that you will likely see some site design changes over the next month or two, as we reconfigure slightly to accept ads from TBD.com’s ad network.
We will also begin selling ad space to local businesses and organizations that would like to tap into the exposure a local blog can give. These ads will run across the TBD.com network, as well as on Rockville Central. We are committed to being a resource for Rockville and continuing to grow — we think this new relationship will help us accomplish both those things better.

You have to adapt and accept good opportunities when they occur. Otherwise you fade away. Sounds like a good move.Mark
