The problem is, your source for news is either the internet (someone elses reporting) or the newspaper (someone elses reporting also). But there's a solution, you can actually talk to the companies you're interested in and, equally, they can talk back.<BR/><BR/>That process of communications is somewhat new (or not so new, depending on how you look at it) and many companies are starting to think of how they can start talking to bloggers. And it's not just marketing, mind you. It's about facilitating information.<BR/><BR/>Sure, you could subscribe to Nokia's press release feed. But would you prefer to have a contact in Nokia / from their agency to talk to? Of course, sometimes, these conversations then end up in blogs - mine or yours.<BR/><BR/>The survey was about how, when and for what bloggers wanted to be contacted. I'm sure you're not keen on spam as I am. According to the survey, bloggers around Asia Pacific agree.<BR/><BR/>That's just one aspect, and there are many opinions, but at least here we have a collection of information that's at least useful for helping guide how companies can communicate with bloggers.<BR/><BR/>Does this makes sense?davidlianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03446293571375339579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1630791402854049329.post-71921378526553909972008-06-26T13:45:00.000+08:002008-06-26T13:45:00.000+08:00i read d... downloaded the survey pdf.. browse thr...i read d... downloaded the survey pdf.. browse thru but can hardly understand...joshuaongyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02615053056847722934noreply@blogger.com
