What’s your take on the List of PR targets for tech companies? Do you think that list is useful?
I think it’s interesting to see which 10 sites are featured and good that not only TechCrunch gets kudos but when promoting something you’d have to go a little deeper as even between them there is a huge difference in content direction.
