Richard Edelman in his Q&A sit down today at Syndicate was asked, among other things, what the PR industry might look like 5 years from now.
The Third Thursday posse recently met with Media Survey's Sam Whitmore to record a podcast for Tech Media This Week (listen here).
I've been experimenting with RapLeaf, a new reputation system that launched over the weekend.
A subset of the PR 2.0 Gang that Brian Oberkirch originally assembled at the NewComm Forum, regrouped earlier this week to talk about the social media services gap and some related challenges facing PR agencies today (podcast here).
Earlier this week industry research firm Forrester flipped the switch on a new group blog, this latest one focusing on marketing trends.
The interest and attendance at last night's Third Thursday meetup was *way* beyond my expectations, I don't know what to say, I think we had about 80 people, in PR, marketing and otherwise, which ain't bad for a first-time gig.
The good folks at PodTech continue to grow their InfoTalk Network.
For all the hype and hyperbole surrounding the latest Technorati stats, I think, to Jeremy Pepper's point, a lot of marketers are sitting on the sidelines looking at things and asking, "how the hell does this really help us with our social media plans?"
Now this is good news, Keith O'Brien, editor of PRWeek.com has started a blog called Ubiquitous Marketing.
So my earlier post on the social media services gap kicked up some discussion, and as always, that's a good thing, right, but I purposely left something out of that post that's worth touching on now, even if consensus is still lacking -- that's billing.
