A Brief Blog Profile: Everything Everywhere
by Thomas Hynes
Everything Everywhere is a travel blog created by Gary Arndt. Gary grew up in Wisconsin and didn't even see salt water until he was 21 years old. But, boy would that change. In 2007, he sold his house and went to see the world. In that time, he has visited over 100 countries, 49 US States, 100 US National Parks and over 150 UNESCO World Heritage Sites. First off, I didn't know there were that many National Parks in the U.S. And secondly, I'm jealous. Take a look around the blog and you'll quickly see why.
Like I said, the guy's been everywhere. Bungee jumping in New Zealand? Check. New Year's party in Thailand? Check. Spelunking in Borneo? Oh, you know he has. But it's not all glamorous. There's also this post on how to deal with the loneliness of travel. That's a refreshingly honest angle on this whole 'sell everything, see the world' narrative.
Gary has traveled by plane, train, boat, car, bus, motorcycle, tuk tuk, bicycle, camel, elephant, horse, hot air balloon, and helicopter. And wherever he's gone, he's blogged about it. And like I said, he's been a lot of places. But then there's a post like this one, describing 13 places he'd love to see next. My first thought is: there are places you haven't been? And my second thought is: I bet those aren't the top 13 places he'd like to see. They're probably the only 13 places left he hasn't seen.

Customized Newsfeeds
Don't let the name PR Newswire for Journalists dissuade you. This is a great service for bloggers. Any content creator -- whether you're a journalist, freelancer or blogger -- can set up a customized profile to receive releases based on preferences. You also have access to hi-res photos, media-only content such as media advisories and embargoed releases, and experts via ProfNet.

ProfNet Connect
ProfNet Connect is a free, interactive online community where PR professionals, experts, and media professionals can network and engage with one another. Via profiles, forums and blogs, subject-matter experts can position themselves as the go-to source for content creators and journalists. In turn, content creators can search the site by keyword to find the experts they need. The site also features enhanced profile capabilities, allowing users to easily add multimedia components -- photos, videos, white papers and more -- to their profiles.
News Widget
Our widget allows you to display PR Newswire content on your site with very little back-end programming required. You not only get the headline, but also the body of text of the news release, keeping the user on your site at all times. In order to do so, the difference between our Widget and other widgets is at the end of the sign-up process, you will be provided with two pieces of source code -- one for the page where the Widget itself will be displayed and one for the pages that will display the body of text of each news release. In addition, the sign-up process allows you to have 100 percent control over every aspect of the Widget's appearance, so that the Widget can blend in fully with the look and feel of your site. Still not convinced? Here's what one blogger had to say about the widget.
