Default Re: Inform of/about
Hello Nyggus

It seems to be a very similar case:

1. Please keep me informed about any new developments.

— you expect the information to be fairly detailed.

2. I'm very sorry to inform you of this, but your application for a seat in the House of Lords has proved unsuccessful.

— the information is a single fact.

MrP
