Yawn-Pad special offer!!

As of today this blog will become the marketing arm of any mobile technology manufacturer that is happy to stump up the cash.

This week the Nectarine Corporation of America received acres of publicity for its new Yawn-Pad from a leading broadsheet newspaper sometimes known, mistakenly in our view, as the Custodian (of the chattering classes).

It is clear that the Custodian got given wads of cash for this publicity. And if it did not, then it is hardly the 'Custodian' (of its own income) that it thinks it is.

If you would like some publicity on this blog, please give generously. Failing that, pay for an ad or two. Or something.

  4. All newspapers fill their pages with PR handouts. If you open the ST nowadays page 3 is handed over to puff

  5. The tabloids are the worst, always have been, although the FT used to have a bit of a reputation for lapping up PR. But the Grauniad is awful nowadays. Eight pages at the time of Michael Jackson's death. And now pages and pages of free publicity for Apple.

    I would say that the Grauniad is the least worst in this respect
