It’s Good Friday and our offices are closed. I’m guessing most of you have the day off, as well.

So, rather than recommend a new blogger that you subscribe to and potentially miss because of the holiday, I’ve created a Google Reader subscription of the recommendations I’ve done since I began this program.

If you’re not a Reader person, I’ve listed all of the below so you can pick and choose which ones you would like to explore, subscribe to, and read.

The recommendations for the past year include:

  1. Sharon Cain, Quest PR Blog
  2. Scott Hepburn, Media Emerging
  3. Jon Buscall, Jontus Media

Have a great holiday weekend!

      Happy Easter to you, PR!

  • Gini, I’m looking forward to perusing this list. I have already found lots of great folks to connect with thanks to you — thanks!

    • Gini Dietrich

      And you thought the fire hose was bad before now.

  • That list has some of my favorite people. But no Charlie Sheen? I thought he was winning?

    • Um, Howie? Remember he’s not to be named on this blog?

    • DannyBrown

      Charlie Sheen, Charlie Sheen, Charlie Sheen, Charlie Sheen, Charlie Sheen.

  • Belong to Spin Sucks and they’ll do all the work for you! Thanks Gini, guess you’re not a DORK.

    • Yeah! You wait til Pro launches. You’ll never have to lift a finger again.

    • You know, I saved his birthday cupcake because he got into the fridge last week. I think I’ll give it to him tomorrow and tell him it’s from you!

      Happy Easter! xoxo

  • Never thought of doing recommendations as a block of RSS feeds. Fantastic idea that I will be using in future.

    Many Thanks & Happy Easter
    Sean

    • If you’re an avid Reader user, it’s pretty easy to figure out, but if you need help, just holler!

  • Sal

    I think my Reader just doubled in size…this is AWESOME Gini! I have been looking for a resource like this. One click – everything should be that easy.

    One question, when you update your end, will it update ours as well?

    Also, do you have a list like this of podcasts? I would love to see (err…hear) who you listen to – if any

    • You know, I don’t have an answer for you right now. I’ll dig into it and find out. I hope it does update for everyone who subscribes. If not I’ll do a recap every 10 weeks or so. I’ll let you know!

      As for podcasts, I really only listen to Shel Holtz, Rachael Seda, Mitch Joel, and Inside PR (because I have to). But I like the idea of doing a subscription list like this. I’ll play with iTunes and see what I can come up with.

      • Sal

        Thanks for the podcast recommendations. I didn’t know Mitch had the SPOS as a podcast. I couldn’t find anything from Rachael Seda…I’ll have to google the podcast. Also, I’ve been listening to Inside PR for a while now and have been wondering if and when Spin Sucks will get a podcast (I take a glance about once a month or so).

        Hope you had a Happy Easter!

        • Gini Dietrich

          Oh…no pressure, huh?!?

  • Wow, what an impressive list. Looks like I have a lot of reading to catch up on. Thanks, Gini. Have a wonderful weekend!

    • Hopefully this makes it easy for you to scan and absorb quickly!

  • Thanks Gini! Quite a list you have here. 🙂

    • Gini Dietrich

      Soon I’ll have you guys in a bundle with my entire Reader and then I’ll have to go exploring again.

  • Hi Gini,
    Always looking for new interesting blogs so this is a time saver. I’m always amazed whenever I read a good blog by an experienced blogger that doesn’t have a RSS feed or the option to receive the blog by email.
    Riley

    • Gini Dietrich

      It’s kind of scary, isn’t it? Beth Harte did a great blog post a few weeks ago about the things bloggers miss, including subscriptions and social sharing. Boo hiss!
