While serving in the U.S. Army in Europe in the 1950s, he got the travel bug, came out with a travel guide for servicemen, and followed up in 1957 with…

  • This is an excellent discussion. I am wondering if anyone is receiving replies to queries via Tweets from editors at NYT? I'm not receiving any response by email to my queries about my July 1-10 trip to New England (CT, RI, ME).
  • I agree that a mix is necessary in any marketing plan. The Internet has brought so many of us together from all over. I know at IFWTWA we are getting more and more members from Australia and we're excited about the growing number. Happy to meet you here.
  • This is so interesting to read everyone's perspective on social media - i tend to use facebook and have connected that to tweeter so whatever i update facebook with automatically updates the twitter account - but at the end of the day the core product i work for is a newspaper but i see the potential of social media either helping to increase readership or creating a whole new audience which i am finding on facebook! A little local newspaper in Western Australia can now reach the world and i really want to explore that further. I love social media and i love the way the world is so connected now (like me on this network - especially when you live in the world's most isolated capital city) - but at the end of the day it is finding the mix that suits you best but a 'mix' i believe is a must.
