Presspass.me is a new website that serves as a directory of journalists and media professionals. The site uses Twitter to track what journalists are sharing and reading, in addition to topics they follow, who gets their attention and who they interact with. It then classifies the journalists by beat, region, and news organization.
Presspass.me was founded in Dubai by David Haddad and Valencio Cardoso who describe themselves as “enthusiasts of participatory communication via technology.”
