IPR #40 will be edited and uploaded by Wednesday afternoon. I lured Terry’s colleague Michael O’Connor Clarke from his sickbed with the promise of a pint of Guinness. The show’s in the can and ready for post-production by the other Clarke.
Happy New Year.
Here’s a photo that C.C. Chapman took of Mitch Joel, Joe Jaffe and me at a recent dinner a bunch of us got together for in Toronto. Mitch, Joe and C.C. were all in town for speaking gigs at Canadian Marketing Association’s Digital Marketing Conference. I, of course, attended the dinner as a groupie. Terry was there too, but left early to play hockey.
We talked about it on IPR 31 and for the record, Terry is for it and I’m against it. What say you?

This has been bugging me all week. Terry and I tried to scat a few bars of our favourite cartoon music that could be used on Inside PR. My Bugs Bunny-inspired music is actually titled Powerhouse, by Raymond Scott. (click to hear a clip.)
I couldn’t find it through conventional search, so I tried Yahoo! Answers (client disclosure alert) and there it was. Wisdom of crowds and all that. (Here’s the Google search for comparison’s sake.)
Terry’s Johnny Bravo reference I’ve yet to dig up. Anyone?

First, a little background. The Oct. 31 edition of the Toronto Star had a story about blog monitoring that featured Environics Communications new blog monitoring service. Social media consultant Maggie Fox took some exception to the story through a post on her blog and followed up with a comment to Inside PR.
It’s definitely worth a listen and more discussion. Over to the Inside PR Nation for your thoughts….
Update: Bruce MacLellan, head of Environics Communications has left a comment on David’s PR Works blog.

Leesa Barnes of the Podonomics blog and co-author of the Canadian Podcast Listener Survey calls to compliment us on our use of audio comments from listeners on Inside PR to build community.
(Ed. note: Thanks, Leesa. But we stole this idea from Sheville‘s For Immediate Release podcast and Jaffe/Rubel, but we added the posting of audio comments to the blog as they are received.)
Leesa also puts a challenge out to the critics of the listener survey’s methodology to design and execute their own survey to plug any holes they perceive and add to the collective knowledge of podcast listenership in Canada.
