Why PR/Reporters Need RSS
Here's a recent dispatch from ExtremeTech's Loyd Case, just ahead of CES 2005:
Bear in mind that when I sign up as a member of the media covering the show, I fill out a profile sheet that checks off the areas I'm interested in. Yet, somehow, I get press releases and pleading emails from PR people from all the areas I didn't check off. But the number of messages I get from people outside my areas of interest pale compared to the ones I want to read. By mid-December, I was getting over 100 emails per day just about CES press events, booth appointment requests, and related mail.
I recently had a conversation with Loyd's colleague Mark Hachman. By subscribing to Jonathan Schwartz's blog, he was one of the first to get the story out about Sun's Niagara CPU. I'm hoping to put the content of that discussion, and others, in a long awaited update to my original April 2003 paper on the topic.
