Content Marketing the Next Big Thing – a podcast with Joe Pulizzi

Having a steady stream of content is more important than ever. Podcasts, blogs, videos, communities – all are very different types of content. And there is no such thing as “sharing” in the content realm.

These days, content marketing is more art than science. That’s why Joe Pulizzi put together a blog and business bookmarking site Junta42 to highlight the good, the bad and the ugly of content marketing, as well as to list the top content marketers. The list, called the Junta42 Top Marketing Blogs, includes Buzz Marketing for Technology, ranked #5.
