No such country as Palestine in history, this is basic fact.
The British Mandate named Palestine was not a country.

Good on facebook for not taking sides …unlike uneducated twats like….’an israeli state’? excuse me… and
‘David Shamah, a reporter for the Jerusalem Post writes, “I think it’s very unfair of Facebook to take sides in an ongoing dispute by making official (the creation of a state called Palestine), something that the United Nations has not even decided on yet.”’
There was Palestine before Israel, we dont need again uneducated twats, stupid men in business suits to tell us what our land is,whether it is a state or not…
Not taking sides on anything u urself step out of the picture and look logically at it, ppl of Israel are movers and settlers, they happened to choose THE COUNTRY PALESTINE and have forced their settlement there for too long…think about it…get ur head out of the clouds…
whether its a state of not hahahaha u people make me sick

Funny and yet not at the same time. Amazing how with just a few clicks on the computer we can rearrange the world the way we want it to be.

Comment on Why Press Releases and Web 2.0 Go Together by george65

Hi Marc:
Good to hear from you. Marc is the VP of Marketing at Optaros and has done a lot of work in creating the new Optaros web site.

Marc, your worry about cost seems to be a tactical concern rather than a strategic one. I’m not sure global corporations should spend much time worrying about spending between $15,000 to $40,000 a year on global distribution of their news.

But I will say that greater visibility isn’t just helpful – its crucial to building brand awareness. When press releases show up among the top 10 searches in Google or Yahoo — you’re getting great monetary value.

The problem with free services that you mentioned is that they aren’t monitored by many news outlets (but I’m not familiar with all of them either). Long-standing wire services like PR Wire and Business Wire have direct links to hundreds of online properties (and will even provide translation services). Publications actually monitor these sites for news (often assigning interns and rookies to watch the wires for news).

Here’s wishing you continued success at Optaros.

George, Thanks for taking the time to comment on our efforts. As far as "putting releases over the wire" I agree that greater visibility over the web is obviously helpful - the only issue I have with it is the cost the traditional wire services charge relative to the value. Luckily there are many free alternatives that deliver the same desired benefit. Here is a list All the best, Marc
