Kill the Travel Press Release-Tweet it Instead

So I was sitting at a media lunch when I overheard someone from a Canadian tourism office say to her companion that they were thinking of no longer sending travel media releases out. They were going to tweet them instead.

I was taken aback because just an hour previously, I wrote  this article and thought somehow she was the  angel of affirmation.

But she’s right on.

I receive on average 35 travel press releases a day,  in one form or another.

International Air Travel, My Style

As I start packing for yet another intercontinental flight, I came to the happy realization that I am now quite good at this. I know not to take more than one pair of shoes, two pairs of jeans, and save the weight and space for a few extra pair of BVDs.

It has been one of the most tolerant and absorbing society. The mark of differe

Summer in New York City

For many New Yorkers, the classical chant sounds too true in a late August across Manhattan, and residents flee to their summer houses in the cooler latitude of Long Island. But whilst trampling the broad avenues of the Big Apple at the height of midsummer might not seem the obvious recreational choice, there’s no better time of year to enjoy the city glamour and Labor Day sales.

Wrong Goals in  Arab World Tourism Development

The usually upbeat Arab News.com  was, as usual, upbeat in projecting solid growth for Middle East tourism, even as it writes of 2011 because of home-grown revolutions against Arab dictators.

Quite literally banking on the area’s historic and religious sites, its world-class shopping, infrastructure and growing wealth, the site reports that “the tourism industry is resolutely optimistic.”
