We’re getting ready for Moving Day
Welcome to Sheila Guides You To The Good Stuff, where we’ll be talking about using the social Web (blogs, Facebook, Twitter, etc.) for better travel, tourism and destination marketing and economic development.
This blog will be my new “home” for that topic, but right now it is a temporary placeholder for my WordPress.com blog of the same name.
I will move all of my other Sheila Guides…. content over here very soon, plus (I hope!) all of my RSS and email subscribers, too. This is a self-hosted blog on BlueHost, which means I pay for it but get more features and control than the WordPress.com blog, which is free but has some limitations.
I will need that control when I launch a new business in September, Tourism Currents, with Becky McCray.
Moving Day is planned for either Monday or Tuesday, July 13 or 14, with the help of my WordPress guru friend Jennifer Navarrete.
I expect some broken crockery, smooshed boxes and empty rolls of packing tape laying about, so please excuse the mess!
Thanks,
Sheila Scarborough (who guides you to the good stuff)

Congrats on the new blog. Having more control will feel great once all of the kinks are ironed out. Good luck and I hope it is a smooth move!

Welcome to the new digs. Glad you made it in one piece.
Hope my suggestions were at least interesting enough to check out.
Proud of you. Goooooo Sheila.

Thanks, Todd! I tried to read and research everything, but finally I simply had to shut up and jump.

It’s funny how “more control” initially seems to mean that you don’t know what you’re doing!
I’ll figure it out….

I fully support the accelerated creation of more Good Stuff.
