Journalism remains a field that is open to newcomers and outsiders -- all you really have to do is write the kinds of articles that publications want to publish. You can help yourself by learning the basics of journalism.

I'm a journalist, why should I open a journalist/editor PRMinds account?

PRMinds - FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
The most important reason is to ensure that relevant IT and Telecoms press releases are forwarded to you. Another important reason is related to our main objectives during the creation and development of PRMinds. We believe that PRMinds enables a more effective delivery and access to your IT and Telecoms focus areas. It is often the case that PR wire services are too general, where industry topics are referenced simply as 'Technology' or 'Telecoms', rendering the service quite ineffective.
