We all know time is money — and time is only getting tighter in a tougher economy. At the St. Petersburg Times, we are taking that message to heart.

Starting Monday, the Business section will appear inside newly named "Tampa Bay" — what is now the "metro" or "B" section of the newspaper. A leaner but more meaningful stock market report will accompany the Business report Tuesday through Saturday.

The changes are part of a larger streamlining of the Monday-through-Saturday editions. We will deliver quicker-to-read business news and analysis, along with a stock and mutual fund report that carries fewer listings but better captures the key trends of the daily markets.

We are also introducing an easier-to-use way to check stocks and mutual funds online at money.tampabay.com. Try it out. We will be adding features in the coming months.

In addition to news, here's what you'll find during the week:

Monday: Look for the Work Week calendar of what's ahead each week, along with John Torro's Solutions computer help column.

Tuesday: Read Mark Albright's On Retail column as he examines trends in stores and shopping.

Wednesday: Steve Huettel's Road Life column aims to help Tampa Bay area travelers.

Friday: James Thorner sheds light on the area housing market with his (Un)Real Estate column.

We will continue to publish a separate Business section on Sundays, with extensive coverage of personal finance, including the insights of personal finance editor Helen Huntley. Let me know what you think.
