http://www.prBristol.co.uk is designed for people ‘making and breaking the news’.
The objective is to provide a stronger voice for the industry and to use ‘blogs’ to share best practice and to improve communication between PR practitioners and the news media.
Organisations in the private and public sector are using new technology in increasingly sophisticated ways to communicate with consumers, customers and stakeholders. The lines are also becoming increasingly blurred between those who make the news and those who break the stories, not least because of the introduction of multi-media platforms which have revolutionised the way news is disseminated.
http://www.prBristol.co.uk will introduce you to the fast-moving world of social networking and to other developments up and down the spectrum of news media. This site is intended to be useful, informative and influential. Please try it out.
Attached is a simple user’s guide to the functions and applications. We’ll be surprised if you don’t keep our ‘News at a glance’ feature as your web home page or if ‘The Watering Hole’ – http://www.prbristol.ning.com doesn’t add a new dimension to your social life!
