Comment on Facebook’s Social Graph: Implications for the Travel Industry by Andy Hayes | Travel Online Partners

It’s quite interesting – this is exactly what Twitter announced at SXSW (their product called ‘anywhere’).

As I mentioned in my most recent blog post, I’ve actually advised a cautious approach on this one. Some of the social widgets, like replacing comments sections like these with Facebook ones, are nonsense. The like button has its place, but I wish you had more control over the format. And it goes without saying, work on your Fan Page first! (Oh wait, excuse me, your “Like Page” or whatever we call them now.)

I have initially changed my Facebook settings to not share my information on sites besides Facebook – I just wanted time to explore and see what all the implications would be… However as a business owner (http://www.dreamofitaly.com) I could see how having others use these options could help biz so I’ll likely start using it in full. Facebook has truly been a game changer. I love, love Twitter but think my Facebook Fan page is probably more valuable. Think about how many people access their Facebook feeds multiple times a day. Love it that Dream of Italy is bringing them great content in the midst of updates from their friends.

Kathy I could not agree more with the last one. While flashpacking for a year with my wife we are all about collecting experiances we will have for the rest of our lives. Also our backpacks are full so buying stuff is expensive as we have to ship it home. Best of luck on 2010 and maybe we will cross paths. We will be in Bhutan in early April.

Comment on Commuter Bike-Off! It's Electra Amsterdam vs. Bianchi Milano vs. Masi vs. Jorg & Olif vs. Simple City vs. Paul Frank vs. Biomega vs. Kronan (oh, my). by jeffbach

Anything Bianchi gets my vote. Black Bianchis should be illegal Celeste green is the best color on the planet and more than compensates for whatever mechanics the Bianchi may be lacking :)

I’m a fanboy. With three Bianchis in my garage, it’s the only bike I have purchased for the past 25 years.

Now if I only had somewhere to commute, I could justify getting one of these. Working from a home office can be a drag sometimes……..
