I'm glad to see you're stepping out as a blog tour consultant, and I'd be happy to talk with you about that sometime. What you're calling a centralized website for the blog tour is a wonderful idea. PR Squared has something a little more elaborate called a "<a href="http://www.pr-squared.com/2006/05/the_social_media_press_release.html" rel="nofollow">Social Media Press Release</a>." One thing I really think you should consider is building a social media press release for every blog tour, with the blog tour as one element of the press release. We should talk more about this sometime. Tina, you are so great. I’m glad to see you’re stepping out as a blog tour consultant, and I’d be happy to talk with you about that sometime.
