This week, my new friend and long-time blogger Nisha asked met to rattle off a few PR blogs I read regularly.  I get this question pretty often, but it gives me pause because I don’t really read many straight-up PR blogs. My daily read list is actually a smorgasbord of tech, HR, social media, writing and future-of-journalism blogs — but I believe their collective offerings make me a better flack.

Here are the blogs consistently bring something fabulous to my itty bitty table:

Human resources and GenY in the workplace

Future of journalism-ish

Writing

Geek trends and nerd news

Public Relations

This chex-mix approach to web surfing keeps me out of the PR/ Social Media- bubble. That’s important because a sound public relations practice requires you to be well-read and well-rounded, so you have to expand your horizons a little. Your clients (rightfully) assume you are their go-to gal/guy about every kind of media and communication tactic – not just the ones you like. (i.e. there is a lot more to PR than Twitter; there is more to the Internet than social media).

So, I’ve shared my favorites. Check’em out, study up and please share your favorites in the comments!
