PRWeb Now Allows Embedded Videos in News Releases
Taking the “new” news release (Social news release? News release 2.0? Call it whatever you like) one step further, PRWeb announced today that they now have a system to include YouTube, Google Video and Yahoo! Video content in news releases.
From today’s news release:
“As the explosive growth of video sharing sites demonstrates, organizations of all sizes are using video content as a way to tell their story,” said Bill Wagner, Chief Marketing Officer of Vocus, Inc. “Feature Video allows PRWeb customers to embed videos directly in their news release, providing a true multimedia experience for their news and increasing the video’s visibility on the web.”
The Internet continues to change the way companies promote themselves (or how their PR firm does it for them). This is an obvious statement, I know, but it really is amazing how things have changed in such a short amount of time. It wasn’t that long ago that faxing was the primary delivery system for news releases.
