Well its 3/4 points all rather confusingly lumped together. - crazy PR led second life reporter nonsense. Yes. Probably bad , wrong and now futile but someone has to innovate there first to know that. - using tools such as twitter to help improve your journalism/contacts/network. Good/effective I'd say, even in the UK, but especially for technology journalists. - linking to a range of bookmark sites at the bottom of a (BBC) news story to increase reach. Worth giving it a go but monitor from time to time in case Digg goes tits up, traffic dries up. Be careful about those UK/Non UK/commercial user journeys (for BBC)
As for James overall point that the most effective strategy is to ignore above and actually invest in actually engaging with online communities (ie: listening, responding, hosting, and supporting). What sort of crazy manifesto is that.
