I am on tv, radio, newspapers all the time because of what I call the 'bunker bump'.
If/when OpenPOS is ready be sure to turn it into an interesting news story that makes way more noise than just a forum post here. Come up with some interesting story that incorporates the tech.
Good call!
Can you share with us some of the things you have done on tv, radio, newspaper and other possible media?
I don't understand the question in relation to 'some of the things you have done on'. Anybody who googles me can see I have been all over tv radio and newspapers because of what I described above.
In several radio interviews I have talked about Bitshares because I was sought out as an expert in the space of online transaction.. but again, the 'bunker bump' as I put it, gives them something interesting to share with their listeners and that helps give them a show/story that doesn't just sound like another blah blah blah day of news.
Media people are hungry for unique stories and content that is going to get them eyeballs clicks and likes. So my recommendation was to be sure to give it it to them so that your story comes across as a POP not just to them, but to their listeners, instead of a fizzle that is space filler that their listeners/watchers quickly gloss over.
One other thing, you don't (at least I think so) use media people to do 'coming soon' announcements... because soon as you don't deliver on that.. it's a great way to burn your bridges with them OR their readership ie. they stop paying attention to anything about you. Their readership/viewers are their bread and butter, and yours if you are continuously feeding the same channel stories, you have to respect that. When you do a story, just be sure you have delivered on what you are talking about. For example, I didn't go on the Daily Decrypt yesterday and talk about what we are going to do with Blockchain Bunker, I told them what has been done, and we had the website ready for the announcement. Yes, there are some cases where the story projects into the future, but in regards to OpenPOS, and this is just my view, it's better to talk about what has been done then what you are going to do at this stage. Development of applications, especially ones that are new, are always fraught with twists that throw off whatever you project. How often did we hear this from Hangouts with BM regarding Stealth? Often enough.
Anyways.. just my 2bts on handling media in my experience.
