PR 2.0 has jumped the shark

Brian Solis:

[...] PR 2.0, therefore, is significant and it is worthy of discussion, rather than ridicule. And let me point out, that there will not be a 3.0 or any other rev numbers, unless there is another tremendous evolution, fusion, or breakthrough in the practice, science, and art of communications.

Too late, Brian:

The age of PR 3.0 is upon us.
And the New PR is now a company.

Oh, well.

If you don’t know a librarian, you should

Christopher Kenton:

If you don’t know a librarian, you should. They remind us of two critical things in life: we don’t know nearly as much as we think we know, or should, and the sources we rely on these days for truth are not nearly as reliable as we’d like to believe.

Upcoming events in April: SES, WOMBAT, BDI

No, I’m not planning to write only about my day job on this blog, but until we’ll have our corporate blog up and running (about a week or so) I thought I’ll let you know about a couple of events where you can find the Converseon team — just in case you might want to participate, or come by and say hi :)

So here they are:

  • I’ll be at the Search Engines Strategies conference in New York, on April 9, where my boss Rob Key is going to join Nan Dawkins from RedBoots on a panel called Creating an Effective Social Media Strategy
  • Rob is going to present our first Second Life community project, done in partnership with Plant-It 2020, at WOMMA’s Word of Mouth Basic Training conference in New Orleans, on April 18. If you plan to attend the event (which is highly recommended!), you can use guestofconverseon for a $75 discount when you register. (Disclaimer: Converseon is currently a WOMMA governing member)
  • Finally, I’ll be at the Authentic Communications event organized by the Business Development Institute in New York, on April 24, where Rob will join a panel of top communicators from Porter Novelli, Hewlett-Packard, AARP and Community Connect to discuss about social media’s impact on corporate communications and branding. Please drop me an e-mail if you’re interested in getting a discounted pass.

Hope to see you there!
