 2008-11-14 - Pure Kool-Aid.
I buy everything this book is trying to tell me. My new technological religion.
Be sure to read it more for the thinking behind it while keeping in mind that zillions of new examples of what he's talking about keep popping up in the media ether. This concept has a life of its own. That's its beauty.
2008-11-12 - Execellent Book -
This is one of the best books I have read in a long time - and I read a lot -
David is articulate, great information, very well organized in his thoughts and frankly should be considered an expert in this matter. If you haven't read this book - it is definitely worth every penny -

Do you have a favorite business book that's streaked with highlights, scribbled with margin notes, has a broken spine, and dog-eared post-its? The New Rules of Marketing and PR, by David Meerman Scott, holds that honor on my business reference bookshelf. Subtitled How to Use News Releases, Blogs, Podcasting, Viral Marketing & Online Media to Reach Buyers Directly, this book seemed to shout at me from the shelf during one of my regular forays into Amazon's business section.
As a B2B marketing professional, I try to keep up with communications trends, so I was already familiar with some of the information in Scott's book. I'd purchased it specifically for the news releases and blogging sections, but, goaded by the author's light and enthusiastic tone I found myself learning about new (to me) online activities to support B2B marketing efforts.
New Rules gave me insight into some new tasks that have become SOP in my regular work at our Atlanta ad agency. As a result of the Buyer Personas section, we maintain and plan around the personas of our clients' customers as well as our own.
Overall I enjoyed this book, and regularly peruse my highlighted and tabbed sections. Fortunately, David is understandable as well as enlightening. Just like his blog, www.webinknow.com, the book has a conversational, engaging writing style and is thoroughly worth the space on any business reference shelf.
