Emergency Landing | Emily's Blog
https://eleine12.wordpress.com/2011/04/05/emergency-landing
April 5, 2011. If you were mid flight on a plane, smelled an electrical burning smell and had to do an emergency landing how would you feel? Better yet, if it was your airline what would you do and how would you react? This past weekend Southwest Airlines had two different planes make emergency landings because of various technical difficulties which they later found out to be subsurface cracks. 3 Instead of sweeping things under the rug to avoid dealing with them, communicate the problem so that you can...

Facebook Fans mean Nothing! | Emily's Blog
https://eleine12.wordpress.com/2011/03/29/facebook-fans-mean-nothing
March 29, 2011. Facebook Fans mean Nothing! When a company creates a Facebook page a lot of them think that the more fans they have, the more successful their efforts are. But that is actually not the case. Coca-Cola has nearly 24 million fans on Facebook which is 7 million fewer than Michael jackson. This number means nothing, it is simply a vanity measure for show. In a recent article from R agan’s PR Daily. 1 They are not a measure of impressions. 2 They are not a measure of advocacy. Fill in your det...

Would you donate a kidney because of Facebook?! | Emily's Blog
https://eleine12.wordpress.com/2011/04/05/would-you-donate-a-kidney-because-of-facebook
April 5, 2011. Would you donate a kidney because of Facebook? When I think of Facebook, i think of social networking, advertising, and a public relations forum for businesses. Who knew that a simple status update could persuade someone to donate an organ! Luckily, a man saw the message and notified her that he would be willing to donate and had the correct blood type. The transplant was successful and both men alright. I wonder if this will change the way the waiting list for organs will work? On April 1...

Journalism in the New Age | Emily's Blog
https://eleine12.wordpress.com/2011/03/09/journalism-in-the-new-age
March 9, 2011. Journalism in the New Age. Its interesting to think that just 5 short years ago when I was in high school working on the school newspaper, everything print was normal. With each passing year, technology seems to be growing making the way news gets around much different. It is interesting to see how much things have changed, and to think that most of what I learned from working on the high school newspaper and even beginner level college courses has already started to become void due to tec...

How can you be viral?! | Emily's Blog
https://eleine12.wordpress.com/2011/04/04/how-can-you-be-viral
April 4, 2011. How can you be viral? We have all seen some of the funniest, scariest and most touching popular videos on youtube. We were either searching and noticed that they had a ton of “views” or friends showed us and we continued to pass the video on via word of mouth or facebook, twitter, etc. The first viral video that is one of my favorites is called “Kittens: Inspired by kittens! The second video I chose is “Charlie bit my finger”. Posted in Topic of the Week. Laquo; Facebook Fans mean Nothing!

March 22, 2011. Working with Diigo has been a lot easier than expected. At first i thought that I would just be joining another social media type website, but this one has proven to be even more effective than i was ready for. I really like Diigo. Adding a new bookmark and getting started is so simple. Navigating through the website is a breeze and i like that you can access other peoples bookmarked sites and that they are categorized which makes it easy to find what you are looking for. If you are doing...

March 9, 2011. Recently I joined the site PR Open Mic. And I found it to be another very useful and interesting website for an up and coming Public Relations professional like myself. This website I feel like takes every type of social media or tech savy website good for public relations and puts it into one place. You can listen to podcasts related to public relations, look for PR jobs or internships. Have a personal page, invite friends. Send messages and so much more! There are news stories, videos.

April 7, 2011. Toms shoes is an amazing organization that is founded on One for One. Meaning for every pair of Toms shoes that you purchase, they will pay it forward and donate a pair of shoes to a child in need. An amazing story that my fellow classmate Erin McDonough. Has written a post about! Taking a Step Into a Better Tomorrow. Decided that it was time for something to be done about this. Blake is a true inspiration of selflessness, compassion, and success. Shoes are often times taken for granted...
