Podcast Your News Release
I’ve been meaning to write about this for a while. I know some of you companies out there use PR Web. Heck, we’re a proponent and use them as an add-on to our AgNewsWire.AgWired.com service. I am also one of their subscribing reporters. It’s a different world than the old days in media!

How many farmer had one in the first 2 years? Was it 5 percent?
