An undated note can be found in place of National Journal’s TechCentral, a web site intended to replace its now dead Technology Daily publication.

“After a run of almost two years, the TechCentral page bids farewell. But let us assure you that the timely content TechCentral featured day-in, day-out is not going away,” reads the letter from CongressDaily’s Editor Louis Peck.

National Journal’s Technology Daily, a sister publication to CongressDaily, was shut down in January 2008. At that time, in a note to readers, Peck said, “And, beginning next Monday, February 4, [2008,] the online edition of CongressDaily will contain a new, continuously updated section that will include stories of interest to the technology sector in one convenient place. This section will also be home to several of the weekly features that have appeared regularly in Technology Daily over the years.”

Andrew Noyes, one of the Technology Daily reporters who made the transition to “TechCentral” on Congress Daily, is leaving the National Journal Group and joining Facebook next week. Noyes has been the main contributor of the Tech Daily Dose blog.
