Hi, Kim! Thank you for adding me as a friend. I'm really enjoying the TBEX site and community; was crushed that I missed TBEX '10 in NYC by just a few days. Hoping to be able to make it in '11.

Thank you for creating such a great source for travel writers!

Hey Kim,
Just found out about your site from Randall Shirley who will be attending the conference. I cover pretty much everything and everywhere and looking forward to more connections with fellow writer/travelers. Thanks for setting this up.

Hi, Kim. I'm new to TBX. It's a great idea to have a portal for travel bloggers. I look forward to what TBX10 brings.

Thanks, Kim. I am the chair of the PRSA Travel and Tourism section and just left our conference in Aspen. Heard some good things from Sree. You will have to let us know next time you are our destination.

Wow this website is so cool. I just found it and going to tell my friends :)

Do you know other websites that could impress me like this? I'm interested in travel + tech. I just started a blog too!

Hi Kim!

Thanks for the recording advise! I think what we need to do is a few 'practice' movies just to get comfortable in front of the camera and to see what it looks like when you go to edit it. I find that when I'm shooting it seems like I have everything I will need until later on when editing I want to kick myself because some obvious and critical thing is missing :) I guess practice makes perfect.

Hi Kim- Would love to come to the TBEX conference, and congrats on the initiative, but unfortunately (or indeed fortunately) I shall be gallivanting around Brazil checking out beautiful new pousadas (places to stay) for www.hiddenpousadasbrazil.com Next stop Amazon lodges, then off to a few deserted beaches in Bahia, finishing in the mountains near Rio. If you want to come down this way sometime, just let me know.
Cheers
Alison

Hi Kim ~

I was just wondering if the archived stream of TBEX is available somewhere for viewing yet? I couldn't find it, but might not be looking in the right place.

Hope your travels are taking you to incredible places ~

Hi Kim, need your advice please. The TBEX '09 conference looks great, just wondering if I'd feel lost. I've been working in the travel industry for 25 years (with lots of good, rich content to write), but I'm new to blogging. Will the technical aspects be over my head? Looks like the topics are fairly general and not too technical. Would I fit your target audience? I am not attending the BlogHer conference, but I'd love to road trip in from Minnesota, make it a long weekend with my kids, and attend your conference on Sunday. Thanks in advance for your advice.

Thanks for posting this Caroline, I agree with all of your thoughts. My philosophy is that in any debate, *travel* wins every time, regardless of one's style. Whether the exploration is in a nearby neighborhood, or during an around the world trip.…

I love the bathrooms in the Donovan House in DC. Not palatial, but these crazy spiral showers that form an interior wall of the bed area. It's like being inside the giant snail in Dr. Doolittle. Sort of.Niagara Falls Canada
