Did Forum Communications Website, The Oil Patch, Launched One Year Ago Disappear?

Updates

April 5, 2013: again, a huge "thank you" to a reader for alerting me to the website (see comments below). I think I've found it -- http://www.bakkentoday.com/ -- and not all that difficult to sign into. It turns out that my log-in for The Dickinson Press works for this site, as well as others. I've been exploring the site; I can't complain. It seems to have fair and balanced reporting. 

April 5, 2013: see first two comments. It appears the website is still there; I just didn't find it under the ULR posted by the Dickinson Press or others. A huge "thank you" to the reader.

Original Post

I recall visiting the site only once. I had the same experience Rob Port had, and never visited again. Then, for whatever reason (boredom?) I decided to check up on the website. I can't find it. If it is gone, I can understand why. Perhaps it has a new name.

But if you google "forum communications oil patch news" you will get a lot of announcements that the site has launched, but you won't find the site (at least not on the first few pages).
