SMR--Social Media Release

Hmm..How interesting, Social Media killed the VNR Star.

More and more, as I read and "del.icio.us" new blogs, I can't help but notice the striving trend of Social Media! The first comment on SM that startled me was by Robert Scoble. If you read below, you'll note how ridiculous I thought it was that he had PR persons pitch him through his Facebook wall.

Ahhh. I understand that as a PR person, it is important to address journalists, etc. through the channels of communication that they prefer most. Scoble completely throws away the idea of emails PERIOD.

In my PR classes, teachers are telling us that email is the best way (pretty much) and most versatile form of contact. I'm glad I am getting the hang of blogging regularly so that I can keep up with all this "new" news.

When I get back in the Fall, I plan to spread Blogger like an infectious disease. They won't know what's hit them.
