TBEX Speaker Guest Post: Creative Email Marketing for Travel Bloggers
Travel bloggers are a funny group. Dangle a new social media outlet in front of them and they’ve got a username and password faster than they can upload a snapshot of tonight’s dinner. Ask them how they use their email list, and they usually answer, “Ummmm, I’ve been meaning to work on that.”

Travel Blog Exchange: Kilkenny – from Megaliths to SUPing, All You Want Is Here
So, you’re excited to be in Dublin for TBEX, and you’ve also given yourself a few days extra to explore more of Ireland. Now the quandary: where to go?

TBEX: The World is Round
It took a long time for humans to prove that the world is round. Anyone pre-16th Century bold enough to make that claim was labeled heretic, excommunicated, placed under house arrest, or killed. Fast forward a few centuries, from Galileo to Google, and as Thomas Friedman indicated with the title of his book, “The World is Flat,” well, the world, thanks to technology, is flat again. It’s no great revelation that the Internet has led to incredible change, flattening the world and allowing for tremendous opportunities. But it’s also transformed in-person networking into something as alien as life on Mars.
