Recently, I posted about Chrysler's blogging effort, and agreed that they're making a mistake by hiding the blog behind a login and catering only to "established" journalists. Adrants was one of the first to point out that this might not be a great idea. Apparently, Chrysler PR Chief Jason Vines has used the blog to accuse Steve Hall of Adrants of being a "cowardly, anonymous poster." You can read more about his comments in this Detroit News article.
Um... Wow. Here are a couple pointers.
1.) Steve Hall isn't an anonymous blogger... I am, sort of
2.) Understand a blog's influence before you start bashing
3.) Even when you require a login, content finds a way out
