Six Ways to Know When PR Has Taken Over Second Life
- You are invited to the grand opening celebration of “PRSA Island”
- “username and password” is replaced with “goals and objectives”
- Kami Huyse changes her title to “A.A.P.R.” (“Accredited in Avatar Public Relations”)
- Reporters complain of unsolicited teleporting to virtual press conferences
- Agencies start charging clients in Linden Dollars
- Goodbye VNR (Video News Release), hello MNR (Machinima News Release). Oh wait, that’s already happened.
Very funny, Gary.
Should we start differentiating traditional PR (T-PR) from online and social PR (O-PR) from SecondLife PR (SL-PR)?
Unsolicited teleporting? How cool would that be!

Thanks Mike! Good idea, I think at a time when "blogger relations" is an actual disciplne, "SL-PR" makes perfect sense :-)

Hey, if you turn that around AARP, I could join the new Eons networking site for those 50-plus. Whew!

It's inevitable that PR will find its way into virtual life. It's second nature.
Let's hope we harness our powers for good.
