Thanks for posting this article, Sally. Given Wired's article yesterday on blogs strengthening consumers, PR depts need to be informed about the effective powers of blogs.

How do I join your organization and get listed on your front page. I'm going to add your blog to my blog roll on PR MACHINE: http://prmachine.blogspot.com

Robb,

Thanks for joining the BlogFest. This is a one-week-only program, so the blogger names and links on the main page are for the five celebrity bloggers and, yours truly, the moderator. You can include information on how to access your blog in your posts, which we are most anxious to receive. After our week-long BlogFest is over, we're shutting down comments and assessing whether to operate an ongoing blog. We are looking for volunteers to maintain the IAOC Blog on a daily basis.

You can join the IAOC by following the link at the top of the page to the IAOC web site where a membership application waits for you.

Thanks for Your Support,
STEVE O'KEEFE
Moderator, IAOC BlogFest 2004
