For example, a press release announcing a new company, KumangaTeq, would struggle to explain the meaning of the name in the first paragraph. "Kuman" means "mighty leader" in Serbio-Latin, and "manga" means "a very sweet mango with firm body" in Sanskrit. "Therefore," the press release might say, "this fits our very unique branding tagline -- curved for power and technology -- and it matches our curvy logo design."

Notice that these results apply to comments from Slashdotters, not to the text on which they're commenting. Look at the source articles and you get very different results because, of course, most are professionally written or edited -- although there is an interesting oddity in that ratings for files made up by pasting together stories posted by "Michael" are consistently at least one school year higher than comparable accumulations made from postings (other than press releases) by "Cowboyneal."

The aim of the campaign by Federation Against Copyright Theft (FACT) is to "make consumers aware that pirated copies of movies sold on the black market before the legal DVD release are invariably a rip-off," FACT said in a press release. On the other side of the pond, the Mot...

Too many are entering into shallow relationships that generate little more than press releases. The outcomes are not pretty.

The thing I don't hear many vendors talking about, and the thing that never seems to make it into a press release, is the idea of analyzing your business and planning your CRM deployment. These activities are not very sexy, and software vendors in general are loath to see customers stop and think (it lengthens the sales cycle), but in my research I have noted a strong direct correlation between planning and success...

Nintendo said its entrant in this market will debut this year in Japan and North America, and in Europe in early 2005. Rather than replacing the company's highly successful Game Boy platform, which has dominated the portable gaming space for approximately 15 years, the Nintendo DS -- an unofficial name that stands for "Developers' System," according to a company press release -- is designed to be compatible with Game Boy and to be sold alongside it in stores.

Google has shown a flair not only for technology, but also in its business practices of late.
