Because I am one of the early
adopters in PR blogging, most of us feel
connected around the world and some
of the early PR bloggers (and newer
ones) really became friends. Not that

feels like meeting an old friend.

The real challenge is the vast
array of audiences you need to
address. You are a niche inside a
niche. Journalists and stakeholders
share the stage with influential
bloggers so, to create and nurture
these relationships, old and new, is
a great deal of extra work but it
also pushes communications experts
to develop new areas of expertise.
Roberta Pessina, mrstypo.com

I think many Swedish PR blogs
have been trying to be resources for
those that want to learn about the
development of digital and media.
Many really push the envelope, they
are well researched and educate
readers in new trends and what they
mean to PR practitioners in a way
that the traditional media haven’t.
Hans Kullin, Media Culpa

  • 6. 17 01/2014 COMMUNICATION DIRECTOR CommNation Editor Catherine Daar First post January 2010 Topics Digital PR, communication 2.0, inter- net marketing, social media, SEO, content marketing, inbound marketing Blogging in Switzerland “Swiss communica- tion blogs, apart from still being rare, are usually animated by a communication or marketing agency.” commnation.com/blog PR Media Blog Editors Rob Brown, Jon Clements First post March 2008 Most popular post January 27 2009:‘That Virgin complaint letter:What should the PR team do?’ about the challenges facing Virgin after an infamous complaint letter in 2008 Motivation for blogging “Its aim has changed over the years but the core principle has remained that it is now a place for stimulat- ing debate around the ever changing rela- tionship between media and PR.” pr-media-blog.co.uk Media Culpa Editor Hans Kullin First post February 2004 Most popular topics “Often I have analysed popular social networks or phenomena, for example when I tracked the growth of Flickr.That post was quoted byTechCrunch, BBC, CNN and WSJ.” Blogging in Sweden “Many Swedish PR blogs really push the envelope, are well researched and educate readers in new trends and what they mean to practitioners in a way that the traditional media haven’t.” kullin.net All Things IC Editor Rachel Miller First post March 2009 Most popular posts June 13 2013:‘Who is using what for internal social media’, Sep- tember 11 2012:‘How to create an inter- nal comms strategy from scratch’ Motivation for blogging “Through my blog I share my advice on internal communica- tion, and showcase some of the fantastic work happening around the globe benefit- ting employees and companies.” allthingsic.com 27 2928 30 The real challenge is the vast array of audiences you need to address. You are a niche inside a niche. Journalists and stakeholders share the stage with influential bloggers so, to create and nurture these relationships, old and new, is a great deal of extra work but it also pushes communications experts to develop new areas of expertise. Roberta Pessina, mrstypo.com PR ESSENTIALS I think many Swedish PR blogs have been trying to be resources for those that want to learn about the development of digital and media. Many really push the envelope, they are well researched and educate readers in new trends and what they mean to PR practitioners in a way that the traditional media haven’t. Hans Kullin, Media Culpa
