It’s been over a month since my last update, and this one’s not exactly going to be filled with insight, commentary or anything resembling something that is not a job posting. (If you write like I just wrote, you’re officially out of the running). I’m overworked — I’m not getting nearly enough time to play games, [...]

You’ll have to pardon me if I go off on a few tangents here. This whole thing was sparked by some lovely chats I had with some other PR folk last night. Here I sit, perched high above the streets of San Francisco in a swank Japanese theme hotel that I couldn’t possibly afford were [...]

Here’s a bit of deception to kick off your Monday (though the story was posted on Saturday, and it’s already evening today… so if your day is just kicking off… lay off the booze, buddy): MobileCrunch has tossed up a rather intriguing article alleging that Reverb, one of the industry’s more recognizable PR agencies, has [...]
