Gudmundson on SVT

Journalist Per Gudmundson who was asked to stop blogging if he wished to keep his job at Swedish Television, was interviewed today on Kulturnyheterna on SVT. Somehow I sense that Per hasn’t entirely given up on his blog. Although I find it hard to believe, maybe a constructive debate can convince his boss to reconsider. The show can be viewed online here.

PR blog research

Last week Mike Manuel did some research on the frequency of posts among fellow PR bloggers, including me. He concludes that “the average PR blogger creates a little more than 50 posts per month or ~2 posts per day”. During the period that he researched, my blog doesn’t reach that figure, but on the other hand 25% of the content was generated by one single blogger, Steve Rubel of course, so I think I did fine.

Halebop launches Sweden’s “first” mobile blog

Halebop today launched the first (?) mobile blogging solution in Sweden, according to a press release. For 5 SEK (about 0.55 Euro) mobile phone users can get a private blog for their photos on www.halebop.se. To promote the launch Halebop lets hip hop bands Snook, MMBA and Chords have their own mobile blogs on the site. So far, they are not very blog-like, but rather a Flickr-like hosting solution for photos from camera phones. No permalinks for example. And question is if it even is the first solution in Sweden. Zmart launched a mobile blog solution in April 2004, but I can’t quite figure out how it works and if you are able to post photos or not.
