A few minutes ago, I saw this really nasty tweet from Medianama’s Nikhil Pahwa:
As would be expected, this got retweeted several times:
I was amused!
I mean Games2win, the Company that I run HAS a PR firm and it DOES and WILL send out ALL communication that is put out by the Company and its CEO to journalists!!! That’s their JOB!
Paradigm Shift has been Games2win’s agency for the past 5 years!
Errr – Isn’t that how Businesses and their CEO’s reach people???
Oh.. Do CEO’s go corner to corner, meeting journos to cover them?
Most importantly, and this is what I Replied to all the tweets:
‘Isn’t the JOB of Medianama (that pretends to be a journalistic outfit) to be concerned about the CONTENT of the message – and NOT THE MESSENGER’???
So, if my mail came directly to Nikhil with content would that be DIFFERENT than if the same news came via my PR agency???
Or will Nikhil also tell me what type of e-mail font and size I should use?
I was scratching my head at this UTTER BIZZARRE tweet and ‘hahahahahaha’ when it struck me like a thunderbolt!!
CHECK THIS OUT!!
Therodinhoods.com is now SERIOUSLY CLOSE to competing with medianama on many aspects as per Alexa!
NOTE – Alexa is old and outdated and something that I have made fun of – BUT neither Therodinhoods.com NOR medianama feature on google trends; so I took Alexa data – not to make definite media claims BUT to make this point:
IS PURE PURE JEALOUSY AND HEARTBURN THAT’S DRIVING NIKHIL PAHWA NUTS??
Check:
I have no clue what to make of this, but if this is the manner in which the so called ‘reputed’ blog sites of India behave, then GOD HELP US!!
I will bow my head low if I write bad stuff/wrong stuff/ etc and will accept all the criticisms of the world, but THIS??
hahahahahahahahahah?
Nikhil Pahwa – be a man. Be an entrepreneur. Fight the battle of audience, of content, of users, of traffic, of page views.
Don’t gossip and make sly remarks about ‘how’ people communicate, as long as they send meaningful stuff out.
