1/ For how long have you been blogging?

 

Personally, we have been blogging for around 2 years. boardingate’s blog  1st post have been written 1 year back.

 

2/ What is your blog about?

 

About Travel 2.0; the web 2.0 applications and its impact on the travel industry :

 

3/ What is your blogging platform and why did you choose it?

 

Blogging plateform: www.boardinglobe.com

We choose it cause it’s ours and we help ourselves J, but also because it’s the 1st blogging plateform dedicated to travel, tourism & hotel industry professionals. Moreover it is very ergonomic and simple to use. Contact us to open a free trial account. (Hey Guillaume, you should try it by the way J !)

 

4/ Your top 3 hotels you have stayed in ?

Tsarabanjina, Lattitude 13°01 Sud, Longitude 48°32 Est, Madagascar

Parker Méridien, New York, United States

CuisinArt Resort and Spa, Anguilla, Caribbean

 

5/ Best Hotel related website

 

http://www.constancehotels.com/

 

This website is very interesting. Above all because there is a feed to access the information updates (> easy acess to the information) and because they have developed a blog strategy for some of their hotels (i.e: Tsarabanjina). In regard to the brand identity, they are right now aiming to develop 2 new concepts, Constance Safari Lodge, & Constance Island lodge.
