Whether we’re looking for travel information for our next vacation or reviews and best prices for our next purchases, we’re probably searching on Google. Even if you aren’t using Google products like I do, chances are good that you’re using one… Google search. What’s that you say?

I was able to catch up virtually with an old friend from high school who now has a beautiful family and a fascinating career, a dear friend I met while traveling in Europe some 30 years ago (and whom I may have tried to encourage to break a few rules while in East Berlin) who is now doing great things working for the U.S.

I was given free registration for the conference, though I paid all travel expenses out of pocket – quite a hit on my credit card. When I was selected as one of the Official Bloggers to attend LeWeb , the largest tech event in Europe, it was an honor.

Just check it out: [link] I also blog myself about marketing (click my name above) and then I have a personal travel blog which I don’t update too often. Reply Hjortur Smarason says: May 3, 2009 at 1:54 pm Yes, it’s true. My dog does have a blog.

This applies to conferences, travel, everyday running around town. (A million thanks to the mystery woman who found my phone and to my new BFF , Mark Pedrelli , for returning it to me.) Whatever you do, think about how the device might be returned to you if lost.

People ask for travel recommendations, advice how to fix a problem with their blog and everything in-between. This makes you more human and I’m more likely to want to get to know a human with a real life than one who only talks business all day long. Be a Good Twitizen – Twitter is a fabulous place to ask for help.

To kick things off, I’ll share that I once spent 18 months traveling on my own through Europe and the Middle East. I’d only planned to travel for about 3 weeks.
