Sometimes I get requests to pay attention to this or to that. Sometimes I honor those requests, sometimes I definitely won’t honor them and sometimes I forget them.
Some time ago someone (I’ll refer to him further as Mr X) asked me to give his Blog some attention. I forgot, but recently remembered that there was a rumor that a real online casino would be established on the (in)famous Principality of Sealand about which Island Mr X had written once in one of his posts on his blog, as I did myself in February, which rumor seems a recurring rumor…without becoming true.
Added September 25, 2007:
According to the first commenter to this post, there is somebody out there who claims Mr X to be a fraud. I really don’t know and don’t want to get involved in a feud. I don’t know who to believe. The commenter doesn’t give away a lot of information about her/himself. So be careful who to believe! This is especially the case as there is another Private Islands Blog Out there: The Official Private Islands Blog.
Again: Who to believe?

Mr X commented somewhere here on the blog on December 18, 2009 out of the blue:
Dear Sir, the following page has numerous highly libelous links attacking me, can you please delete the page?My reaction was this:
http://www.happyhotelier.com/2007/09/21/the-private-islands-blog/
and gave his name telephone number and e-mail address.
[ there were two spelling errors in his comment that I redressed here. Because of the highly personal information I've deleted the comment ]
Mr XAnd you know what? The original link he gave me is now a dead blog anyway….
I don’t agree that the post is libelous it self.
I’m not here to attack you.
Therefore I’ll make the post private.
But after making this post privat, I got 404 errors when people were trying to reach this post.
I now have published the Rules of Engagement to make more clear what I want and don’t want here.
Thereafter I have reworked this post and made it public again to make it visible for everyone ….and deleted the comment with the links that mr X may or may not find libelous. Again I don’t want to get involved.

Hospitality and Travel Bloggers Community: T-Listers and L-Listers Unite!
- Crispitality Wiki (link deleted as it became inactive) has some 16 members
- Facebook | T-List Community currently has 73 members, but not much group interaction thus far
- Albert Barra has created an English language channel on his Spanish Blog (pff I lost the link but here it is: Travel Web Cafe)
- I found myself temporarily booted from Facebook
- I looked further into WiWiH and found out that already 19 T-Listers are a member of WiWiH (see Happy Hotelier on WiWiH )
- Travolution Blog tried to separate the dogs from the sheep in their post The Recommended
- There will be a e-connect conference in Vancouver
- The conference will be covered with a book with T-List tips
Because I felt uncomfortable with some solutions or felt they were not working as they should and because I felt comfortable within WiWiH and with some of their forums I participate in, I asked the WiWiH people if they would be willing to host a Hospitality and Travel Bloggers Community.
They gracefully honored the request.
Invitation for You!
So I am proud to invite all professional Hospitality and Travel Bloggers to join WiWiH | Hospitality and Travel Community. If you are a WiWiH member already just knock to get in, otherwise register free at WiWiH and then knock to get in.
Hope to see you there!
