Startups, please don’t buy my email address
Startups, please don’t buy my email address.
One of my resolutions for 2018 was I wouldn’t write about the fraught relationship between technology journalists and the startups and publicists that pitch to them. Partially because nobody cares. It’s such a niche subject that’s relevant to only a handful of people. The punters at home aren’t interested; they just want to read about cutting-edge tech.
But New Years resolutions exist only to be broken, and here I am writing yet another piece about article pitching. Sorry about that, but trust me, I’ve got a good reason to.
Yesterday, a friend pointed me in the direction of a product that was surging through the Product Hunt charts. Get Tech Press is a subscription service where, for a monthly fee of $29, you can access a list of over 3,000 technology journalists.
