This week in my corner of the Blogosphere: The Launch of Tello

While I have been involved with the launch of a few companies in the past, Tello has been the most high-profile launch to date. Tello ended up "launching" twice this week. First on Monday when it was planned for and then again on Tuesday in the Blogosphere.

Some of the business press that first picked up on the launch of Tello included: Business Week, Wall Street Journal, Silicon Beat, Forbes, Associated Press and Om Malik.

When news of Tello first broke, it was picked up by a number of bloggers including: Alec Saunders, Andy Abramson, Bruce Stewart, Michael Eisenberg, Staysafe Security systems, TechCrunch, Mathew Ingram, Techdirt, Tom Keating, MobileCrunch, Stowe Boyd, Business2blog, Al Brendenberg, Irwin Lazar, Nitin Badjatia, Cynthia Brumfield,Daniel Davenport, viola39, Raymond Weklar, Ron Jeffries, John Cook and Rob Robinson.

As world spread of Tello in the Blogosphere, I couldn't help but notice the Tello flamestorm that took place on Michael Arrington's TechCrunch blog. I wasn't alone in observing the firestorm as it was also reported by: Publish, Marketing Begins at Home, mad dog in the fog, Naked Conversations and Jeremy Pepper.

Next time around, I'm pretty confident the Tello PR team will be sure to brief more members of the Blogosphere in addition to the tech writers on their beat.
