Canada-e-Connect eTourism Conference 2010

Montreal in Winter

Global economic downturn. American real estate and financial crisis. International recession. High Canadian Dollar. Canada imposes visa restrictions on Mexican visitors. All this and more have been hitting my business and my time therefore has been more limited. But I do want to come back to this community and learn more from my fellow travel bloggers. As co-chair of Canada's, Canada-e-Connect eTourism Strategy 2010 conference (in Montreal, January 27-29), I will be working with the advisory committee to finilize the program. I am suggesting that the conference end with a travel bloggers forum. I have several international travel bloggers in mind, but if anyone's interested, send me a message and let me know about your blog.

Comment by Anne Bolender on August 31, 2009 at 4:37pm: Greetings Jamie, I am also new to travel blogging and would appreciate learning more about the Canada-e-Connect eTourism Strategy 2010 conference. My blog, www.agelessnomads.com, is focused on Canadian baby boomers who are interested in designing a lifestyle that includes extended travel.

I was also curious about the Canadian Tourism Community on ning.com - and what is required to become a member of that community.

Thanks, Anne

I'd love to hear more about this.
I blog at www.nerdseyeview.com and www.blogher.com/travel. I've done a few speaking engagements about travelblogging and would love to learn more about what you've got in mind. Drop me a line via my blog?
Pam

Comment by Sheila Scarborough on August 23, 2009 at 4:51pm: That sounds like a great event; my long undies are ready! (Wait, is that TMI?) I met Richard Séguin briefly at Travel Media Showcase in Kansas City last fall - he sold me on the destination. I blog about family travel and cultural travel, plus tourism and the social Web. If you're looking for speakers, I'm interested.
