The first post

Welcome to our first post on Socialtrav. We talk all the time about the increasing importance of blogging and thought it was high time that we walked the walk as well as talking the talk.

The Socialtrav blog will look at the interaction of social media, such as blogs, Twitter, Facebook, Google+ and more, and the world of travel and tourism. We intend to cover things such as how travel companies are already using social media to great effect, the changing face of travel in the MSM (considering we both come from the old school) as well as lots of cool, fun stuff we pick up on the way.

We hope you enjoy reading it and we look forward to engaging with you as we embark on this exciting journey.
