The other day I ran the list of bloggers that David Meerman Scott credited for having helped inspire his soon-to-be-released book The New Rules of Marketing & PR.

Guess what? The list is a treasure trove of outstanding blogs! I haven’t had time to check them all out, but here are a few that were new to me that should appeal to the small and mid-size business reader.

The Publicity Hound’s Blog. How to get publicity–for free. What’s not to like?
