To Blog About My Trip-Or Not To Blog?
I’ve never blogged about any of the trips that I have taken in the past. However because it seems that Israel is always a topic of interest in the comments here I was debating whether to write anything about it here.
Is there anything specific you would like to read about?
Reviews of the 5 Starwood hotels that I am staying at?
Or should I just stick to finding deals?
On another note, it’s been a lot of fun bumping into some fans in NYC and here in Israel.
At the Tudor Hotel in Manhattan, where I stayed last Sunday night, I bumped into quite a few people who were there only because they saw the $19 deal on this site!
One couple even told me where to nab a free parking spot for the night!
Free parking in Manhattan? Who knew!

August 8th, 2007 at 6:25 pm
why is it rude if we don’t want to read someones personal story?? this is dans website and if he wants to he can write about his trip but he asked us for our opinion if he should write about it . and we are answering truthfully that we are not intrested.

Personally I don’t care whether he posts about his trip or not. But I just find it interesting that people consider it insulting or “Chutzpatic” that people actually comment that they are not interested in hearing about his trip, when he clearly asked whether he should post about his trip “or should I just stick to deal”.
35
August 13th, 2007 at 9:55 pm
yes why is it “chutzpadik” if dan himself asked us if he should blog about the trip or not. he asked us for our opinion and we answered truthfullly that we werent intrested. i would agree it was chutzpah if he wrote it and we would tell him we werent intrested. but here he asked us for our opinion!!!!!
