Usually, we don’t post District of Corruption podcast episodes on the Buzz Bin as they tend to be more of a personal podcast for Geoff. However, this episode was unusually relevant for Buzz Bin readers given all of the brouhaha that blew up across the blogosphere.
Technosailor’s Aaron Brazell started us off as Geoff was late (doh!). Then we had a very long civil discussion about the whole blogger relations issue. We called Gina Trapani Rita all show. So sorry, Gina!
Ground covered included:
- Basic background
- Some of the causes, including undo pressure
- Whether or not all bloggers really have the power to blacklist vs. the top tier
- Press releases – why bother emailing them?
- Better uses of our time, including social good
- Flat out building relationships
Presto Vivace’s Alice Marshall joined us for a good part of the conversation and added a lot of great colorful insights.
