I just posted my article, Blogs: The Birth of "Public" Relations, over at FPRA Blog Week. It also happens to be the final article for the event.

This is FPRA Blog Week, so we should probably have one article about blogs, right? As we said earlier, our focus for this event was always going to be traditional public relations topics to provide more benefit to our members. Perhaps it is fitting then that the last article posted would be about a new—and to some, a non-traditional—tool. However, some may argue that blogs are no longer non-traditional—they are the future and need to be integrated with your current practice of public relations. Perhaps we could say that blogs are the true birth of public relations?

We've been extremely happy with the response the event has received. Over the next few days I expect Bob and I will post some wrap-up comments and then begin to think about next year's event.
