This is a good idea. even with people checking their work and usin programs such as spell checker and grammar check, there still can be errors that go over looked or even just the graphics or wording may be a little off…so having a site that will check it all over again for you is pretty cool…it’s a good idea to be completely sure about your work before sending it out to professional or customers!

I’ve used their website and twitter graders, both of which are very handy. Unfortunately I haven’t used this one yet, but I intend to the next time I write a press release for someone.

Writing press releases is a greater skill than people think. There are rules you have to follow, like keeping the information objective and to the point and short enogh.
Also, an average journalist gets loads of releases every day. You really have to be good to keep him interested.
A good idea overall. I wonder though, if people will notice the benefit of it.
