It’s another edition of things that I’m obnoxious enough to suggest that you really really really wanna click through to.
- On Tuesday, Scott Monty fired a well-deserved shot across the bow of the 50 zillion social media books and experts floating around these days. With a few exceptions, of course. Also, Kottke with a semi-unrelated, yet serendipitously timed post. So what if it was posted two weeks earlier and sitting in my flagged items. It fits.
- I must admit, seeing Katie’s comments about getting started on what is her current blog, way back in 1999, when she was like 14, is quite fun and takes me back. To somewhere in the early 1990’s, and my BBS addiction.
- 4 Awkward Moments In Facebook “Likes” – via Mike.
- You won’t like Chris Thilk when he’s angry, movie studios!!!
- Leave it to Rex to put it down right when it comes to Microsoft’s Browser for the Better campaign. Now, like my randomly rotating in headline says – “If you’re on this site on IE6 then I hate your computer.”
- I’m sorry, but docs asking patients NOT to rate them online? Next thing you know this’ll start showing up on the back of movie or theatre tickets, that you can’t tweet about the show for 24 hours. [via David Weinberger]
- Have I mentioned that I FRAKING LOVE the new Studio MWW site? Seriously. The staff page wins at the Internet. For this morning, at least. Crap, it’s afternoon already. Sorry, guys.
Also, my latest PRWeek column is up, (subscription req’d) and discusses how PR people need to understand the value of working with journalists on stories that might only appear online – and how that’s a good thing.
