NMRcast #14
Following the 3rd Thursday event held on the 18th, the last week has seen a flurry of activity in the blogosphere addressing the value (or lack of value) for a social media news release. Chris Heuer, Tom Foremski, and Shel Holtz review the various points different posts have made and how it can affect the develoment of the social media release. Shel put together a list of the posts they reviewed which can be found on his site (and we encourage you to sift through them all).
NMRcast #14 (29-minutes) can be downloaded (MP3, 13.3 MB), or you can sign up for the RSS feed to get it and future shows automatically. (For automatic synchronization with your iPod or other digital player, you’ll also need a podcatcher such as Juice, DopplerRadio, iTunes or Yahoo! Podcasts, or an RSS aggregator that supports podcasts such as FeedDemon).
A big ‘thank you’ to Shel for hosting and managing the NMRcast for us! If you would like to listen to previous NMRcasts, please check out the For Immediate Release website.

Hey guys,
Just listened to the NMRcast and I’m sorry I’ve not been in touch sooner to pledge my support.
I’ve been thrilled about the concept of the Social Media Release since I first heard about it in passing on FIR. Seeing the ideas laid out by Todd Defren was great and the design has remained on my desk at work for some time now. Every day I think about how I could put it into practice for any number of my clients. Of course I then dust off the old style ’safe’ release and send it out to a chorus of delete keys being hit by journalists.
Well now is the time. You can count me in on anything that will improve the current press release. And don’t get me started on how RSS delivery will change the worlds of PR and journalism.
I’ll hopefully see you at the SMC event in London on 15 Feb but in the meantime please check out http://www.allaboutimageblog.com for my view from the UK on the social PR industry.
See you soon,
Mike
