Like I’m sure most, if not all PR and other professional communicators, I read a lot. I receive a lot of email newsletters, and when gainfully employed, get a lot of client and industry print magazines and newspapers. Maybe it’s just the info-geek in me or something that all journalists — past and current — have in common.
Whatever the reason, I have a need to feed the information beast within.
While I’m not fully caught up with my inbox reading and great pointers from those I follow in Twitter, I have read several informative articles that — in case you missed it — I’m passing along below.
- MarketingVox: TV, Daily Papers Most Trusted Info Sources (Nov. 3)
- MarketingCharts.com: Blogs Influence Consumer Purchases More than Social Networks (Oct. 31)
- MarketingVox: Most B2B Tech Companies Don’t Use RSS Feeds (Oct. 19). From what I see, you can say most B2B companies in general do not take advantage of RSS feeds. They’re missing an easy, passive way to reach an audience.
- Mashable: 10 of the Best Social Media Tools for PR Professionals and Journalists (Oct. 30).Saw this via Twitter, but forget which person I follow had it. Am sorry — I’ll pay closer attention next time and give credit.
- MediaPost: The Changing Face of the Press Release (Oct. 29). Great stuff, but please people, use news release, not press.
