Where in the world is CruiseSource.us?

I feel bad because I have completely neglected the CruiseSource.us blog. 

What have I been doing?
1. Won the Shorty Award in the Travel Category for providing the best content on the Social Media Tool Twitter. I will be Flying to NYC on February 10th to go to the Shorty Awards on February 11th.  Luckily I will be in NYC for Social Media Week, so I will get to attend some other Social Media Events. 

2. I volunteered to lead the planning of Charlotte Twestival with only 2 weeks to do it.  It is part of the Global Twitter Twestival Event being held in 185 cities on 02.12.2009 benefiting Charity: Water.   On Sunday, 2.09.09 we did an interview on 106.5 The End trying to get the word out for Charlotte Twestival.

3. Started the planning of the SoFresh Social Media Group Cruise.   I am working with several others heavily involved in Social Media to create a group cruise where Social Media Enthusiast can meet each other, learn about the new applications, learn how to use the medium to build business and of course enjoy their cruise vacation!

4. I have done a couple of interviews on the current trends in cruise pricing.  Click Here for my favorite in the USA Today.

Twice a week I am putting together the best deals in the cruise industry so you do not have to…go to CruiseDeals.com and sign up for Seamail.  Twice a week, you will have my best deals delivered directly to your email!  FOR FREE!

Look for Videos, Posts, and many Microposts on Twitter from the Short Awards!
