I frequently get asked to review products, which I enjoy doing. Editorializing non-stop gets old after a while! Yesterday, however, I was asked to "review" a product on the basis of a press release. I declined and told the requester that I would be happy to review the product if they wanted to send me a review copy. After all, what value is a product review if you haven’t actually seen or used the product?
Take this posting in the same vein as "what is a journalist", and "when is a blogger a journalist".

Tomorrow’s blogger panel promises to be a good event, with participation from Jeff Pulver, Brough Turner, Andy Abramson, and Dan York. Amazingly, there will probably be fewer than 1/3 of the bloggers attending the show, up on the stage. Martin Geddes, Russell Shaw, Ted Wallingford, and Jim Courteny are here also. RocketBoom’s Andrew Baron was busy watching Jeff Pulver’s keynote today as well.
So, here’s an open invitation to all bloggers, and wannabe bloggers. Help us out on the blogger panel. Make sure you come, and come prepared with tough questions. Be opinionated. Let us know what you’re thinking about!
