Not all of us PR’s are full of shit … some of us just don’t do well with Taco Bell 1/2-pound burritos, that’s all.

Seriously though, I’ve said it before and will keep saying it – bloggers who can’t write about anything other than blogging are boors. Who wants to read that drivel? If you want blogging and other “micro-media” to catch on, you’ve got to find a way to engage people and encourage them to respond.

Dialog is the key to success in this media – that’s what makes it so intriguing to PR’s who view their job not so much as “selling” a story to the press as “sharing” their story with the public.

Keep doing PR Differently, Peter, you’re an inspiration to us all. Thanks!

The Internet is the greatest soap box ever invented. You can shout from the hilltops — even though no one is really listening.

We’re not full of shit (other than a few of us). It’s just that blogging brings out the obsessive-compulsive in each of us, though more so for the Type A bloggers you note.

Thanks for keeping it light, something I wish I was better at myself.
