Just got notification that my American Airlines flight is delayed just as I was about to head to the airport so maybe I can knock out a short post with a few links that stood out. Blog action is way down, holiday mode!
Meet the First Passenger to Fly Etihad’s Three-Room Residence Suite – Skift Interesting character. TBB tweeted that out a few seconds after this appeared in Skift. We look amazed once again that so many bloggers post about stuff we find when they see it somewhere else…yeah…right.

You should post links that track their source so you can see which bloggers clicked your link.
TravelBloggerBuzz says
That sounds complicated enough for me to learn how to do it 🙂
Oliver2002 says
Its pretty easy: go to bit.ly, shorten the link there and later enter the shortened link with a ‘+’ added in the end to see who clicked on it. (this also works for other links ;)) Or get a bit.ly account and have it handy in one place 😉
TravelBloggerBuzz says
I have a bit.ly account and used to use it a lot. Not so much after a hack done on them AND me getting more familiar with Buffer. Probably Buffer does the same thing, just haven’t looked into it. Not that important, I like to bitch about things like that around here 🙂

Bronze still open? Will claim it
Nick @ Personal Finance Digest says
Well nuts… I could have potentially claimed a first. More daytime posting please!
Oliver2002 says
When I see artists do such tricks I think about how many times they had to practice to make it work. Ouch!
Sam says
Jet Blue has offered to fly relatives of the two murdered police officers to their funerals. They have also offered to fly to the funerals two police officers from every police department in the country that wants to participate.
Good for them.
TravelBloggerBuzz says
Wow, that is really impressive!

If you care so much about attribution, why don’t you RT things on Twitter? You just quote tweets from your own account. That’s bad form in my book. Robs them of RTs/faves/exposure.
TravelBloggerBuzz says
I generally do not RT tweets for several reasons. The main one is I just don’t spend enough time on it to go out of my way to search for those tweets to RT them. If I see a good one while I am on Tweetdeck I will do it.
As far as attribution, i just find it pretty interesting that a few blogs on my Ignore list post things I post way before and never ever attribute to me. I guess it serves me right for all the crap I blog about them lol.

PS. Feel sorry for me. My Etihad A380 J flight in a month is just about the only day which has not opened up the First Apartment for redemption. And it would only be an extra 11,000 Etihad miles!
TravelBloggerBuzz says
I do remember reading that blog post and found it interesting. I lost my interest when there were no names named 🙂
TravelBloggerBuzz says
Merry Christmas to all! It is unseasonably warm, feels more like Easter than Christmas!
I think I may take a day off today….
