Global PR Blog Week 3.0 - Brits required

Posted Wednesday, October 10, 2007 at 9:41pm in Blogging, Business, Media, PR General, Technology  | 

Constantin Basturea of Converseon and the PR Meets the WWW blog has today announced the soon-to-be Global PR Blog Week 3.0. For those that don’t know, Global PR Blog Week is a yearly event (although I don’t think it happened last year) which invites PR, marketing and communications professionals from around the globe to submit articles during a one week period relating to best practices in the realm of the new PR and social media. Entries are added to the Global PR Blog Week site where they are debated and discussed.

Constantin highlights some additional new features at this event. These are:

* 2 or 3 keynote/invited contributions
* digg-style voting mechanism to choose the top 3 entries
* live events (example: a daily live BlogTalk Radio show)
* a daily event in Second Life
* video, in addition to podcasting
* daily summaries of the most discussed topics
* real-time updates for the number/titles/authors of entries submitted for each category

You don’t have to be a blogger to participate; you just have to have something relevant to say. And given the amount of UK PR and marketing bloggers there are these days there should be a strong UK contingent.

Don’t stand in the crowd waving the flag. Score the winner. (Youngie’s going to love that one)
