		<description>I've just recognised that you moved your blog to this new place.
I didn't think you had updated since last November. 
I've just checked all the articles since then.
Anyways, I feel happy as I can learn a lot about PR and English language from your blog. 
Though it's a bit difficult for me, it's a good practice. 
I'm looking forward to your interesting posts;-)

Gambatte,

		<description>dear Paul,
Good to see you on the internet!
I've heard about your blogs from Kaneko sensei.
Very interesting to know how things are going in China.
Wishing that the Olympic games be held "successfully".
Take care!</description>

		<description>Hi Heather,

Thanks for mentioning my piece. "What is news?", I was speaking about this with a colleague just the other day. Yes, a fair good proportion of 'news' must come with the 'story' that is relevant to the kind of readership. Working in PR, it's our job to find these angles for clients to gain coverage.

Whether it is coming from The Sun Newspaper or CNN, a popular term they use is: 'Today's Top Stories'. Adults like to be spoon-fed stories, with nice pictures and characters, just like when we were children.  

Social Media allows to escape these values and write what we want - if an audience finds us, even better. 

Cheers.</description>
