Subject – Invitation to be a premium influencer on MyLikes
Hey Paul,
I am writing from MyLikes, an ex-Google social media/twitter advertising company that connects influencers on the web to advertisers. I wanted to send you an invite to be a premium influencer on MyLikes.
This is an invite-only program that allows power Twitter users such as yourself, to make money by creating Sponsored Likes /ads for advertisers they choose and post them to Twitter. You get to set a price per tweet and accept / reject advertiser offers and write your own Sponsored Likes/tweets. There is an extremely low minimum payout ($2) and as an advertising network we don’t take a cut.

We are also running a contest to win a Apple iPad. Given your following, you should have a significant chance of winning it.
Let me know if you need any help in signing up for this program.
Thanks,
Serena Davis.

Greetings! I am Carol Bernice Miranda, a third year Communication Arts student in Miriam College from the Philippines. Part of my course requirements is to do a research in blog journalism. Can i interview you through email?Thank you very much and have a good day!
Dear Sir
I would like to suggest you a news portal based on citizen or participatory journalism, working in India. Your little support (like listing or posting) can help them to popularize this platform in India.
Merinews is not just any news organization but a movement to deliver efficiently the duties of the fourth estate. Public opinion is an important area to be left for decisions made by few self-interested journalists.
To popularize this participatory platform, we need your support. A listing in your “citizen journalism initiative list” (or a posting) can help us to achieve our goal.
Please act for uncared people in the largest democratic state!

Best Regards,
Trinity Mirror scoops Consumer Website of the Year for GazetteLive
Trinity Mirror scoops Consumer Website of the Year for GazetteLive
Trinity Mirror’s GazetteLive website has won Consumer Website of the Year and Best Online Community at the Association of Online Publishers awards.
The Teesside site fought off stiff competition from BBC News, the Daily Telegraph, the Sun, IPC Media and others to win the two prestigious awards, at a ceremony at the London Hilton, Park Lane, on Wednesday evening.
The innovative approach of GazetteLive was highlighted with the award for Consumer Website of the Year 2007. The website hosts a series of postcoded microsites featuring the contribution of around150 bloggers, and is driven from a multimedia newsroom where journalists produce content for both print and online publication. Recognising the groundbreaking nature of the GazetteLive site, the judges commented that it “sets a new benchmark for local news sites….we felt that we were part of the community.”
In winning the award for Best Online Community 2007, the judges recognised that GazetteLive “delved deeper than ever before into core communities” and praised the way it reached new online audiences and opened up hyper-local advertising opportunities to small businesses and big advertisers alike. Up against some stiff competition from the likes of The Sun and The Daily Telegraph the judges described GazetteLive as “a cut above the other community sites – a great example of how to make local news real, with relevant interactivity.”
Editor of the Evening Gazette, Darren Thwaites, said: “This is a fitting reward for the hard work and innovation of our whole team. We’ve made enormous progress in the last year, embracing multimedia opportunities and creating a website to be proud of. The challenge for us now is to build on our success. This is an all-round team effort that everyone can be very proud of.”
David Black, Trinity Mirror’s Group Director of Digital Publishing, said: “These awards recognize the excellent progress we are making growing our digital activities. The awards – given the stiff competition – reflect the innovative nature of the site.”
Neil Benson, Trinity Mirror’s Editorial Director, Regionals, said: “This is an exciting time for the GazetteLive, and further recognition of the innovative approach of the site, having also picked up an industry award for Regional Website of the Year 2007 in June. The site continues to reach out to the local community to engage, entertain and inform.”

Do you value the pr distribution services?
Lately I wondered if there is real value from the pr wire distributions. There are some recent studies on the influence of various social media practices on journalism, but is this mainstream tactic still valued?
I just popped up a survey and while certainly not overly scientific I am hoping to see if there is any consensus. Your participation and thoughts would be appreciated.

Would you be the same Paul Bradshaw who interviewed Rev. Rick Warren at some point in the past? The interview starts out: “People ask me, What is the purpose of life? And I respond: In a nutshell, life is preparation for eternity. We were not made to last forever, and God wants us to be with Him in Heaven….” The interview is all over the Web but with no source cited, other than your name. I’m a journalist myself, and I like to know THE source. Can you help? Where was the interview originally published? Thank you, sir.

Hello,
My name is Phil Davies from mytrafficgoals.com which is a search engine optimization company. While carrying out some searches today I came across your website onlinejournalismblog.com/ and wanted to contact you to discuss the possibility of an indirect link exchange.
A client of mine has engaged my services to improve their website’s search engine rankings by exchanging links with sites like yours. Your website’s search engine ranking can also benefit from the exchange and there is no cost at all to you as my client is paying me for my services.
If you would like further information, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
Thank you for your time, and I look forward to hearing from you.

I work for an international company called Educaedu, an online directory for students searching for higher education programs. We have websites in 19 countries throughout mainly Europe and Latin America, including one in the UK. The Educaedu point of difference is that students who want to study overseas have access to information about programs and courses offered in other countries, all through the same portal.
We would like to be featured in your blog if our site is of interest to you. I think your users would find this resource valuable. If you are interested in more information, please send me an email and I can send you our Press Release.
Kind regards

Dear Team:
We wanted to approach you in regards to an initiative which may be useful for Online Journalism: Opolis Secure Mail provides free, encrypted email and messaging services, whereby the sender decides what the recipent can actually do with a message and its content. And, the sender can always monitor and track emails (also to whom – if allowed – these were forwarded).
Our thoughts are in regards to investigative journalists, who may benefit from this application, especially when working on highly sensitive reports. Interestingly enough, the service works from every host PC, and working with Opolis there would not leave any “traces” there either.
Would be great, if this were of interest to you.
The Opolis Team is also avail for any questions you may have.
Thanks!
Hello
My name is Adam Chadwick. I am a former New York Times copy-editor, who, unfortunately was part of the lay-offs in the newsroom this past December with the company. For the past year I have been working on an independent documentary film about the U.S. newspaper titled “Fit to Print”.
The film focuses on a broad number of issues facing our current newspaper industry crisis and the large transition within general reporting these days and the rise of grassroots and citizen journalism. I’m contacting you because of your blog. I would love to hear of any major news stories you have broken on your site or perhaps any major corrections you have caught within the legacy news media (which would have otherwise not gone reported or corrected). I would love to hear more about your involvement with this and potentially set up an interview with you at some point.
To find out more on the project, we have a website (under construction) at http://www.fittoprintfilm.com with a teaser trailer and complete synopsis for the project.
I can be reached at adamgchadwick (at) gmail (dot) com
Best,
Adam Chadwick

We are building a new platform on which you can easily publish, read, and share digital magazines: www.magsty.com. Currently, we are privately inviting journalists, editors, writers, and bloggers to be the first to publish digital magazines on Magsty. You will be able to create unique magazines under which you can publish articles for the world to read and share.
What differentiates Magsty from a blog you ask?
Well, other than the technologically revolutionary semantics that are going on underneath Magsty’s hood, there’s the smooth, elegant browsing and reading experience we’re working on that is unmatched elsewhere. Readers can seamlessly browse through all of your digital magazines on a single platform, and the pioneering page-swiping user interface makes blog page scrolling look like it’s 1999.
We are working very hard to launch Magsty for beta consumption in the coming weeks. These are exciting times for journalism, and we believe that Magsty just might be the next major step forward in our industry. So stay tuned, post your email on our landing page, and kindly invite fellow associates and society members to do the same for updates and our launch date at www.magsty.com.
Sincerely,
Team Magsty
I run a villain-themed website and I’ve been looking for writers to take on world events from a villainous perspective, would you be (or know anyone) that is interested? We cannot offer any money since we’re not making any but we do offer a path into the dark side.
