I had the delightful opportunity to be a guest speaker at a workshop that Darren Barefoot of Capulet Communications led for the good folks at the CEC Network. My talk was on blogger relations - both from my perspective as a blogger (how I like to be reached out to whether here on MNIK, OneDegree.ca or Funchico) as well as on how I find and evaluate bloggers for blogger outreach programs for LintBucket's clients.
Below are the resources I discussed in the session:
