CarCharging announces a new and integrated design for its CarCharging.com and BlinkNetwork.com websites

A few years ago the CarCharging Group bought out the Blink Network assets from ECOtality, which was rapidly going out of business. Until that time CarCharging's charging stations were on the ChargePoint network, which one would notice only if one paid attention to host site ownership details. By buying Blink, they got themselves an independent identity and a large charging network with its own identity.

What they also bought was a piss-poor reputation grounded in the reality that their charging stations are often broken and not maintained properly. The name, Blink, lends itself to jokes about Blink Being On The Blink.

While I'm sure updating the website is important for establishing corporate branding and whatnot, that shouldn't be their highest priority. Electric car owners unanimously want CarCharging to focus on reliability and good quality service.

(OTC: CCGI) ("CarCharging"), the largest owner, operator, and provider of electric vehicle (EV) charging services and the owner and operator of the Blink Network, announced the launch of a new and integrated version of the parent company's website, (carcharging.com) CarCharging.com, and the website of its largest operating entity, Blink Network.
