Play them at their own game

Reed Elsevier has set up an online service providing its Estates Gazette journal, with a full launch scheduled by Jun 1996. An initial launch serving 20 estate agents from London England is first being piloted. The company faces competition from services using the Internet, and this has led to an increased focus on electronic publishing. Other electronic publishing projects include Tetrahedon Letters, providing information for chemists, which is released twice and three times weekly, and New Astronomy, an electronic journal.
