Seizing on the growing interest in celebrity spawn, People.com
bought Celebrity Baby Blog, a four-year-old Web site devoted to
celebrities and their babies, from founder Danielle Friedland.
For the time being, celebrity
Baby Blog will remain
separate from
People.com. In the coming
weeks, the blog and People.com will begin cross-promoting each
other.
People.com hopes the acquisition will grow its appeal with its
largely female audience, while it plans other additions, both home
grown and through acquisitions, to build traffic to the site.
