Apparently Journalisted (http://journalisted.com/) is popular amongst PR types in the UK. Anything like it in the US?
My wife, who works in PR here in Australia, passed on this from someone else, suggesting that someone should build it in Australia:
"Journalisted.com - This is a brilliant service and probably one I use on a daily basis. From a PR point of view, it can be used in one of two ways; if you want to get in touch with a journalist about a story or your client, but you aren’t sure if they’ll be interested, you can search for that journalist and look at the articles they’ve worked on in the past. If you want to get in touch about something to do with science, but the contact has only written about politics in the past, it’s probably best to forget contacting them. Similarly, if there’s a subject matter you have in mind and you want to look up journalists who write about it, you can use journalisted.com for that too."
Thought I'd mention it in case it hadn't been done in the US or AU and someone was interested in trying it.

It's called MediaSync http://www.mediasynconline.com/ and it is pretty good, I've used it a number of times
It's not exactly the same, but we're building something similar at http://newsbasis.com
