Monday, September 25, 2000 Cygnus Business Media Launches WoodworkingPro.com Cygnus Business Media, a business-to-business media communications company, has announced the launch of its second industry portal, WoodworkingPro.com, a Web portal for the woodworking industry. The announcement comes shortly after the company's formation of its Firehouse.com into a wholly-owned subsidiary. Cygnus also publishes Wood Digest Magazine, a 30-year old woodworking trade publication with 50,000 subscribers. ``The launch of WoodworkingPro.com supports our vision of providing industry leading diversified media solutions to our clients,'' says Paul Mackler, president & CEO of Cygnus Business Media. ``Both Wood Digest Magazine, and now its online counterpart, will give our advertisers a stronger reach while providing professionals with the essential news and information necessary to make better and more informed business decisions.'' WoodworkingPro.com delivers industry information and product research through various links. A key feature to the site is Showcase 2000, a guide for the selection and sourcing of raw materials, woodworking & panel processing machinery, hardware and supplies. WoodworkingPro.com also includes news and archived articles covering issues affecting the industry. ``Wood Digest subscribers spend billions on products and services each year but lack a viable online resource where they can gather research,'' says Tony Dellamaria, publisher of the magazine. ``We plan to lead the industry in this endeavor and provide e-commerce opportunities to professionals and manufacturers.''
