I'm proud as a peach to report that this beloved (and ever consumer-centered) blog was just singled out on the front page of TypePad.com as a featured blog. The official write up had this to say (blush, blush) about Consumer Generated Media:
Pete Blackshaw believes in "the power of the Internet to give individuals a voice and change the way things are done". His blog, Consumer Generated Media, helps promote ideas on marketing, consumer advocacy, multi media, and more. There are thought-provoking pieces on text mining and how it "undresses" advertising, 10 important takeaways from Steve Jobs' recent iPhone pricing apology, and lighter commentary from one of the original "Mad Men" of advertising. Many of Pete's categories, from actionability to consumer affairs, relate to consumers themselves, and offer ways in which they (and we) can stay "in control"!
Many thanks to those who have subscribed to and supported this blog over the past couple years. Keep sending feedback. Much, much more to cover!
No need to blush--well deserved recognition for a great consumer-centric blog and a consummate blogger.
Congratulations!
