NEW PLYMOUTH, Idaho--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Internet Truckstop, with the help from the Women In Trucking Association, has launched a program that will designate women-owned businesses on the truckstop.com load board.

This service will allow users to identify women-owned businesses within the trucking industry in a highly efficient way. The ability to identify these businesses is crucial for those companies trying to meet diversity goals.

Internet Truckstop has introduced this service because more shippers and logistics companies have diversity expectations. Some are looking for ways to meet their own internal business goals to be socially responsible. Others have diversity requirements imposed on them from the government when they are working on publicly funded projects.

According to Mark Rousseau, a WIT board member, "PepsiCo/Frito Lay are always looking for resources to help us meet our diversity goals. The combination of the truckstop.com load board and WIT working together will help us quickly identify women-owned businesses to help us meet our diversity needs."

Internet Truckstop Director of Freight Matching, Leigh Foxall said, "This new program is a great tool for making diversity matches between women business owners and the companies seeking to work with them."

2012 Laurence Olivier Award Nominations Announced; Matilda The Musical Leads with 10

By Mark Shenton 15 Mar 2012

The nominations for the 2012 Laurence Olivier Awards saw the RSC's production of Matilda the Musical, which has already announced its intention to open on Broadway in 2013, lead the way with ten nominations in the maximum possible categories for a musical, including a collective nomination for its four young actresses who share the title role as Best Actress in a Musical.

Also recognized with multiple nominations were Ghost the Musical, which begins performances on Broadway March 15, and the National's production of London Road, which returns this summer.

On the plays front, there was another shared nomination, with Benedict Cumberbatch and Jonny Lee Miller nominated together for Best Actor in a Play for the roles they alternated in the National's Frankenstein. The National's production of One Man, Two Guvnors, still running at the Theatre Royal, Haymarket, and The Ladykillers, running at the Gielgud through April 14, received five nominations each.

The nominations were announced in an event held March 15 at London's May Fair Hotel, which for the first time were also broadcast live online. They were announced by the 2011 Laurence Olivier Award winners Nancy Carroll and Roger Allam.

In a press statement, Mark Rubinstein, president of the Society of London Theatre, commented, "We are thrilled to announce the incredibly talented list of nominees for the Olivier Awards 2012 with MasterCard.

Sometimes some of my readers here complain that I do not cover Bing enough. The truth is, it really isn't my fault, it is Bing's fault. 🙂

Why? Well, this site is very niche in that it only covers topics found in forums and social media areas. We figure, if the SEO/SEM community isn't discussing it, it likely is not worth being covered here. Things at the top of the mind of SEMs are often discussed in forums and social settings - the rest is all just "news."

So why is it Bing's fault they aren't covered too much here? Well - they do a horrible job, recently, keeping their Bing Forums clean and on topic. Just check out the Webmaster section, it is filled with spam or check out the indexing section. It has been like this for at least a month or more. It is almost impossible for me to find good threads in forums filled with spam.

So I check in on the forum every morning and see this stuff and I leave - hoping that the next day it will be cleaned up and never is.

In fact, I felt that Duane's post on mobile SEO URL structure was important, so I made my own thread about it at the forums. No responses because the place is a spam fest.

So much so, people at WebmasterWorld are complaining about the spam in the Bing forums.

Bing, I want to cover you more - please help me.

Forum discussion at WebmasterWorld.
