Bravo! Please continue to share these classroom innovations. They are an inspiration. I also enjoyed reading the comments, especially Jennifer's story about how reporters have changed with regard to using PR-prepared media.

Agreed. Whatever works and is easily shared with your key audiences is the way to go. All the apps you mentioned, we have been covering for some time. There are those that think it is folly. They, however, are what we call - dinosaurs. ;o) Thanks, Jennifer! Agreed. Whatever works and is easily shared with your key audiences is the way to go.

Red Cross started feeding bugged b-roll, using twitter, utterz, flickr and an online newsroom some time ago. At a recent communicators conference I asked some of the media how they liked this and they said it was great. (Used to be if they didn't shoot it, they wouldn't run it, but not any more!)They also said we were ahead of many others by embracing this sort of medium. I say anything that will help you get out a clear, accurate message in a timely fashion is a great thing. Robert, you are right on.

Great rant! I sent you a message via PROpenMic to that effect, but going in a bit more radical direction (for a corporate media conglomerate). ~Paul So true. Great rant!

I'll go read her post, too. Well, we are both in sort of a symbiotic relationship. Sadly, many on both sides see each other as leeches. Sad, but true. I, on the other hand, see it as a mutually beneficial relationship between two disciplines. We do have much in common, especially when PR is done right. Thanks, Chuck. I’ll go read her post, too.

It's a new media world! Interesting post on Mindy McAdams blog: http://mindymcadams.com/tojou/2008/how-much-longer-for-j-schools/. Of course, she's talking about journalism and you're public relations. They are different aren't they? You are so “ahead of your time.” It’s a new media world!
