So I’ve been trawling through my PR RSS feeds and I’m including some interesting posts below, but before I get to that indulge me for a moment… Mini rant: What was interesting in reviewing these posts is the fact that the ‘PR 2.0’ moniker continues to live.

Earlier today I learned from Jeremy Pepper via Twitter that Phil Gomes has temporarily suspended his blogging activities. Phil was one of the first PR folks (along with Jim Horton and Richard Bailey) that I came across when I started blogging many years ago. In a trip of pure nostalgia I searched my old blog [...]

Forrester’s Josh Bernoff has published some interesting findings from a survey they undertook in the second quarter (April-June) of 2008 to find out the most trustworthy information sources. Interesting, good old e-mail comes in a #1, traditional media is holding up nicely and the poor blog (particularly the company flavour) limps in last. See the [...]
There has been a drought of interesting things in my RSS feeds recently, the majority of content seems to tirelessly (and boringly) focus on “blah blah is dying or dead” or “blah blah is going to change the world”. The good news is that today I came across some interesting items I thought I would [...]
Device of mass disruption or eh is it a phone? Guys seriously I have stayed silent on this subject long enough. It’s a phone. It’s not a six inch device of mass disruption. Apple has done a good design job but I am bored to my back teeth with the ridiculous posts and tweets. I [...]
The last couple of years may have been a struggle, but I am delighted that today my meagre blogging efforts on the world of Public Relations have been polluting the Internet for exactly 6 years.
