      There is helpful information on each of these sites. This can help people who haven't decided where to make their portfolios. Also, this could give you pointers on something you are already working on.
  • You then have the option to modify anything from the story’s text to the featured picture to the date and publication name. You can also add tags and generate a PDF from the URL, which is really nice if you do ever have to print out copies of your articles.

    I thought this site would be helpful with our portfolios. It gives advice on the five portfolio sites that it has chosen. It not only points out the good sites, but points out helpful features from each.

    This is a really great article about how to post articles on Pinterest. Author Comment: I won't be pinning this how-to article on my Pinterest page. I'd like to, of course, because I have a board for my articles, and this article is about how journalists can use Pinterest boards to showcase their work. Ah, irony.

      Could this be because it took a long time for journalists to figure out exactly how to make news pertinent on a non-news-focused site?
    • hwhisennand

      This is amazing to me. BuzzFeed, a predominantly list-form entertainment new site, seems more suited for the short, 140-character blurbs of Twitter.

      This is a great idea on Pinterest's side. Releasing a guide on how to use Pinterest for their needs essentially takes out the "brainstorming" process, which means more time for them to be posting and sharing!
  • Pinterest introduced new article pins Tuesday
  • seeing a growing number or journalists and media sites use Pinterest
  • The site’s ability to drive Web traffic may be a draw for news organizations and journalists.
  • Pinterest sends more traffic to his site than Twitter does.
  • When people visit Pinterest, they browse, they search, they surf, and they uncover more pins.
  • Pinterest has put together a guide for media people on how to use the service

  • At some point, they or their company will screw up.
  • corporate executives must have a well thought out communications plan
  • Apologizing immediately shows that you acknowledge that something wrong has occurred. It does not equate to admitting any wrongdoing.
  • It’s important to be the first out of the gate to acknowledge the situation and its impact on the victims.
  • Respond where it happened.
  • If a company’s audience is active on Twitter, it should first communicate there and extend that communication to other platforms.
  • Committing to an investigation shows that the company is taking the issues seriously and equally important, it gives the company time to find out the relevant details of the problem while providing the public time to grieve knowing that there is some assurance that action will be taken.
  • Mistakes happen.
