Blogs Offer New Opportunities For Press Release Ridiculousness (Jun 21 2005 18:59 GMT) - Clueless PR people absolutely love to come out with the most idiotic press releases (many of which they send to us here at Techdirt). Among our favorites are announcements about how a certain company had a "successful appearance" at a trade show -- as if the expectation was that their booth was going to catch fire and burn to the ground. It appears that blogs are offering yet another opportunity for the bogus press release. Witness an announcement today from a well known (and highly promotional) web hosting/domain name registration company (no need to name them) that came out with the absolutely ridiculous announcement that their CEO's blog is the 23rd most popular blog out there. First off, since when do you celebrate being the 23rd most popular of anything, unless you're into obscure literary references? |
