PR and the Social Web

This is the new weekly feature which replaces the Follow Friday Five for the following reasons:

• There were twelve FFF’s. That’s sixty blogs and I was starting to find it difficult to find relevant blogs that I liked and had not already referenced.
• If I’d continued the series the next one would have been number thirteen. ‘Nuff said.
• The format of the blog requires that images have depth (to make the page stand out) and reference the content.  Imagine how difficult it was to find interesting new pictures that illustrated the number five. (This feature won’t have images).
• This format allows me to reference good posts, that means I can come back to blogs I like.
• There’s no number in ‘This Week’s Best of the Blogs’ so it is more flexible, I can choose to reference any number of posts I choose.  I think I’ll start with five.
