That's right I'm sitting up here on a panel about blogging, and blogging it. It's an addiction, I can't stop.
We're talking about the different relationships bloggers and main stream media have with PR firms. Which is quite striking in my opinion.
Chris Grant over at Joystiq (He's sitting next to me) points out that bloggers tend to have more of an adversarial relationship with PR companies.
We're talking about how to generate revenue with blogs. It's not pretty, basically you need to get hired by a big blogging comany (like Kotaku or Joystiq) or depend on weak sauce Google Ads which doesn't pay me a damn penny on Red Assed Baboon.
Law and blogging: It should be a class. The problem with taking information down from a blog is that you could set a legal precedent of you take something down and down the line you might be legally forced to.
The great blogging revolution, its democratizing the Internet and reinvigorating all media. It also juices.
For the record, a journalism degree isn't a total waste of time, but it's best when temprered with a working knowledge of what you cover... like games.
And it's done... and no one stoned me to death. Wiiiiii!
