@ExploreChicago displayed some wonderful use of Twitter last week for TBEX. They were basically doing Twitter concierge service and the response was phenomenal. I would love to see other tourism bureaus use their Twitter accounts this way.

Hi Rich,

UpTake has recently launched a new program called “Travel Gems” that features blog content from across the web on our site. It brings great blog content to a wider audience and helps bloggers like yourself increase traffic to their own blogs. I’d love to speak to you more about how this program works and see if you are interested in participating.

Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you!

Best,
Brittany (bchandler@uptake dot com)

Thanks for adding the Authentic Seacoast Resorts as a friend, Rich. I see you like Adventure, Hiking and Culinary travel, three things we excel at on beautiful Chedabucto Bay. Read the Authentic Seacoast 101, our primer for all the great things to do when you travel to Nova Scotia's Authentic Seacoast.

Hope you can come up the coast for a visit.

Doug at the Authentic Seacoast

Shanna, I think you'll find the networking -- meeting other bloggers -- is pretty cool. And some of the seminars and info, too. I think if you go with limited expectations, you won't be disappointed.
