So I joined MyRagan a few weeks ago. Some of you might even be my friends on it. Some of you might not want to be.

The thing is, I’m still not sold on it. I mean, I know that there are some real bandwagon jumpers out there, but I’m going to wait a bit. I agree with Canuckflack that MyRagan is the kind of thing that the IABC, PRSA, and whatever other PR/Communication-type feel-good groups that are out there should have done years ago.

But to be honest, Facebook beat all y’all to the game. If there is anything that MyRagan can do, I’m willing to bet that Facebook can do it just as well, and probably more easily. Want to make a group just for Canadian Communicators? I bet there are a ton on Facebook, and that the discussion boards are a hell of a lot better than just internal group e-mail.

But come on. I’m willing to listen. If you’re on MyRagan, add me as a friend and prove me wrong. Or if you’re on Facebook, add me there and prove me right. Or both.

What’s the deal with this website?
You're reading BlogCampaigning. We write about public relations, social media, video games, marketing and pretty much whatever we feel is important. We've been around since August, 2006

Jens "Schredd" Schroeder has been around since the beginning, and he mostly writes about video games.

Heather Morrison is our newest recruit, and she also blogs about life in the big city at Toronto Uncovered.

All of the content on this site is cleaned up by Adam Gorley, our resident copy-editor. He does a hell of a job, and he also writes a few posts for us now and then. Not a lot of people know this, but he is also a soul music DJ who goes by the name "Night Danger."

Parker Mason is the self-described Editor-in-Chief of BlogCampaigning and runs the site with an iron fist. He's also a pretty great guy - you should meet him sometime.

Espen Skoland started this website a few years ago so that he could get extra marks for his thesis, but he's pretty much given up on contributing. Still, we often refer to him as The Legendary Founder. He might be lazy, but he left us with a legacy.
