DePhoCussing from ITB 2010 (1)

I have many impressions to share from the PhoCusWright Travel Bloggers Summit at ITB Berlin.

For a change I will start with my last impression: I was interviewed for the Austrian Tourism Blog.

Thought of posting it first and adding more later when I’ve sorted the lot.

The interview was made by Rainer Edlinger of Edei’s Blog Recently Rainer was promoted to Hauptmann of the Zell am See Tourism office.

A Blog is a Hotelier’s Best Friend

As promised: My presentation for the Hotel Marketing Conference of March 25, 2010. For more presentations at the conference see their Hotel Website Marketing Blog

Benji Lanyado’s Next Twitrip is heading to The Hague

Benji is the one who invented the Twi Trip, a trip solely inspired by suggestions from your Twitter followers. The ultimate Twitrip off course was the Twitchhiker adventure.

I was reading Benji’s tweet today and clicked to his write up and landed on this page:


There is no photo-shopping here other than me highlighting 2 ads. This is simply a nifty way of Booking to cookie based address their targeted audience and not one but two ads are hinting to our Haagsche Suites clickeable to the Booking.com site as an idea for a stay over in The Hague. Idea for you Benji? The Guardian seems to say so:-)

Update:

So I tweeted this post to Benji:

Whereupon he answered:

I’m sure he will end up in The Hague on one of his TwiTrips one day:-)
