    By Megan Webb

    These days, it’s not too often that you hear news of a magazine expansion.

    But we’re proud to report that one of our favorite resources for green building and construction news, BUILDERnews magazine, has announced that it will debut a revamp of its esteemed media brand during next week’s 2010 International Builders’ Show in Las Vegas. BUILDERnews is a national media brand that covers the North American residential, mixed use and multifamily building industries.

    According to the magazine, enhancements include a new logo and improved print publication and Web site design and layout. The online edition further introduces exclusive online content via webinars, podcasts, videos, blogs, social networks and more.

    For readers this means:
