PR's latest "new shiny object" is the social media release (SMR). Originally introduced by Todd Defren in response to Tom Foremski's call for the death of press releases, it represents a new socially rooted format that complements traditional and SEO news releases by combining news facts and social assets in one improved, easy-to-digest tool.
