Blog Buzz on PR: February 11, 2008
I’ve been intentionally avoiding the PR segment of the blogosphere recently - frankly, at times it sucks the life right out of me, and being busy with real work, house-hunting, and trying to enjoy a bit of life, I just haven’t had the patience for it.
I suppose that means it’s time to dig around looking […]
Blog Buzz on PR: January 18, 2008
See what’s been buzzing in the PR blog party recently. You’ll find some interesting Public Relations reads. Then again, you’ll also find some total crap. Judge for yourself:

Do You Really Know a Rat’s Ass About PR?
Apparently Markus Merz doesn’t. Have you seen the BS blog post from earlier today (I guess technically yesterday at this hour)? Give it a whirl:
Big Questions that PR People are Losing Sleep Over
Damn, I’m getting sick of people not in PR acting like they know what the hell the problems with PR are. I […]
Blog Buzz on PR: January 6, 2008
Let’s take a look at some interesting buzz in the blogosphere on all things PR-related in this early stretch of the new year. As always, listing a post here doesn’t mean I agree with it in any way, shape, or form:

Improving the Power150
Not long ago, I posted about AdAge including Alexa rankings in the Power150 Index. Long story short, Alexa is about as unreliable of a metric as you can get in Web / blog rankings, because it’s one of the most easily manipulated data sets in existence. Aside from advertisers who truly don’t know any better, […]
Alexa and the Power 150: What are They Thinking?
Alexa rankings are now being factored into the Ad Age Power 150 rankings of marketing and media blogs. Let’s hear it for yet another goof in blog ranking metrics folks! I commented on Todd’s post directly, but wanted to share that comment here for you as well. Feel free to chime in with your own […]
Weighing in on Wired
Somebody took a wrong turn….

Blog Buzz on PR - September 12, 2007
I haven’t highlighted any PR buzz in the blogosphere over the past few weeks, so it’s time to catch up. Here are some good, not-so-good, and in-between blogger rumblings on public relations lately (or topics of interest to PR professionals), but all interesting enough to be worthy of a read:
Why Shortcuts are Stupid - Green […]
SEO for PR Professionals
About a week or two ago, there was some discussion going on among a few PR bloggers about ethical SEO. I’m going to be producing a free report on the issue with the help of a UK-based SEO specialist I’m acquainted with (in the spirit of transparency, this person is in fact a past client […]
Take Part in a Media Transparency Study
I received the following info today from Judy Gombita, and promised to pass it along:
