We have a meetup this week but I came across this in a media/PR blog. The tips work for bloggers/blogging, too. And the guy with the tips is known for his Twitter posts. We have talked about Twitter in the past.
Any other issues, tech, questions, etc. that you want to talk about at the meeting? Please RSVP if you are coming.

(I have excerpted the best tips;)
2. Aspire To Great Work, Not So-Called Expertise: ?everyone wants to be an expert. would be nice if same people had actual examples of cool stuff they?re doing. lots of talk, less action.?
3. Scrutinize Your True Value: ?so many people act as gatekeepers in the belief they?re making themselves valuable. what?s funny is when the gatekeepers then claim they have too few resources to properly mind the gates. Great scam.?
4. Engage Your Prospects Selectively And With Respect: ?the PR world is just as much spray and pray as the ad world. I?m doused every single day.? BLOGGERS -- for you this means, find a niche and build in it
11. Don?t Lie About Your Affiliation: ?Bothered by PR agency flacks who say they?re ?with? a company. They?re not. They?re with a PR agency hired by the company.?
14. Acquire News Judgment: ?still amazes me that when I ask flacks, what?s noteworthy about this, they often don?t have an answer.?
15. Be Sensitive To Jargon And Context: ?PR Pitch Subject Line of Day: ?Leveraging the Holiday Season to Maximize SEM Spend and Increase Conversion.? Gets you in xmas spirit.??
See you soon.
