>PR Conversations – … (academic group blog)
PR Conversations is NOT an academic group blog. It’s a mixture of both academics and PR practitioners, and that’s reflected in the various contributions.

Thanks, Stephen! :))

Constantin – cu rusine spun ca nu stiam blogul asta – e foarte tare! Tine-o tot asa! Cred ca esti primul roman pe care il stiu sa profeseze cu adevarat in “noul PR”. Felicitari!

Grazd discreetly … and dazd completely that media mindshare down here in alma mater-ville seems not to be found.

An inclusion in the list buys you a brew at the Titanic, next time you’re in town.

Seriously … great list & ’twill be in my links tomorrow.

Mihnea: bucuros de-ntalnire :) Sper sa ne vedem in Bucuresti in decembrie.

Michelle – my pleasure.

Michael: I apologize for the omission! I’m sure I bookmarked your blog for adding it to the list, but for some reason I missed it. I’ll add it at the next update, if that’s OK with you (it should happen next month).

Hi Constantin – not sure you have these yet, though I may be mistaken:

My blog is called It’s Not a Lecture: http://itsnotalecture.blogspot.com

And APCO Worldwide just started a blog called Virtual Vantage Points:

Hi Constantin, Thanks for including me on your list of blogs. Just wanted to let you know that this is a personal blog – not an official one of my company ON24. Would you mind updating that on your list? Thanks! Cece
