Pology Launches New Online Travel Community
June 7, 2008 | Leave a Comment
“Dear Friends, I am really excited to announce that Pology has launched a new travel-centric social network that allows users to share their travel photos, blog about their experiences, trade tips in discussion forums, and connect with other people living (and traveling) in their areas.
“Go to http://pology.ning.com or just go to pology.com and click on the ‘community’ tab on the main menu. Our social network is brand new, so it might take a little time before we have enough users for the social aspects to reach critical mass, but you can help to get everything started by signing up (it’s free), poking around the site,creating a profile, sharing your travel stories/pictures, starting discussion topics, and telling your friends!

Fresh and Local
September 5, 2007 | Leave a Comment
Scott Fisher’s other blog, Fresh and Local, promises to be good reading; I’m going to keep an eye on it. The site will include “a directory of local farms, farmers’ markets, wineries, artisanal bakeries and cheese makers, and the like, as well as restaurants.” Scott is a knowledgeable food and wine critic; it was my great pleasure to dine with him recently in San Francisco.

Over the years he has worked with ordinary people and former presidents, found ways to communicate with crews from Kyoto to Kampala to Costa Rica, overcome numbing jetlag to get the job done, and had a lot of fun despite the disorienting reality of working for weeks far from home.
