This is a quick list of some of the best international PR, publicity and media relations related blogs that I’ve read recently (and there are many, many more that I haven’t read yet). I’m not numbering them, because this list is not in order of priority or greatness, it’s just a random order - you can see which blogs appeal to you most.
- The Bad Pitch Blog: “An award-winning public relations resource from Richard Laermer and Kevin Dugan, since January 2006. Read our Wrath.”
- BuzzMachine: “Jeff Jarvis blogs about media and news at Buzzmachine.com.”
- The Buzz Bin: Geoff Livingston & Livingston Communications.
- Allied: Jeneane Sessum. “Allied is Jeneane’s personal weblog, which covers cultural, social, and professional topics ranging from race and gender issues, to marketing and PR, to pet hamsters.”
(Too much good content out there and too many things to do. Picture Source: Krelic on Flickr)
