This week in PR and social media

By Dan Wool on August 10th, 2007 In Social Media, Weekend Reading

So much happens in a week that we don’t cover here. To add to Dan’s list here are some topics you wouldn’t want to miss.

1. Content wants to be free (again!) — at the New York Times. The walled garden of Times Select may soon open up to the rest of us who don’t want to part with $7.95 a month.

2. AT&T ‘censors’ Pearl Jam’s words. Not wanting to get Dixie Chicked, I guess.

3. Get familiar with your neighbors, via social media. Fatdoor, a mashup of public information, a wiki, maps etc. Good explanation here.

4. Mitch Joel’s Six Pixels of Separation. A podcast every digital marketer should be listening to.

5. Using a camera phone and text messaging to detect art. A very cool idea from Edinburg, England.
