If you haven't checked out the Enfatico blog recently, don't worry, you haven't missed much. CEO, Torrence Boone did a post today about car rentals and Twitter... How much more boring can Twitter become before people jump on the next fucking "Thing du Jour?" Before this, company PR spokes-hack, Kristin Calcagno does a breathless post on Dells, supposedly earth shattering stuff at CES. Written like a boiler plate press release, overlayed with with massive amounts of snake oil and saccharine, it's enough to make you grind your teeth to stumps... So, I was driven to post a comment. This is it...

If you are going to write on a company "blog" and sign off as "Managing Supervisor PR" The first rule of blogging is not to come off as a company PR spokes hack. When you open up with... 60 media, blogger's, analysts and friends of Dell were left swooming (I assume you meant... swooning!) in Dell’s themed Suites on the 26th floor of The Palms in Las Vegas. Try to tone it down a bit... Perhaps, "were impressed" might sound a little less sycophantic. And don't you think "energetic gasps from the crowd," is also slightly over the top? Finally, why are you listing the number of hits and posts the event engendered? Of what possible interest is that to readers of the Enfatico blog? Unless the readership consists solely of Michael Dell and Sir Martin. But then, that's not really what a blog should be about is it? Unless this isn't really a blog. Which begs the question... What exactly is it?
