Also this week, an article in The Wall Street Journal reports that "Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide Inc. is the first major hotel company to make the leap into the blogosphere with a new Web log called TheLobby.com."

Hotel Chelsea Blog
Over at USA Today’s Hotel HotSheets blog, they point to the increasing number of corporate hotel blogs. Ever vigilant in following our competition, here are
a couple of blogs that USA Today missed — Hooters in Las Vegas and Isle of Eriska, a Scottish hotel. Apparently we need to increase the number of stories that we write about junkies and roaches because USA Today writes that the Hotel Chelsea blog is generated by the hotel. "Once the domain of journalists, travel writers and folks with a good chunk of time on their hands, the hotel blogosphere has had a few more entries lately, and these come from the hotels themselves. I told you about the Chelsea Hotel blog recently, but Apple Hotels in NYC has a blog now, focused on travel to and around Manhattan. It’s obviously not for a wide audience, but if you’re heading to NYC, it’s worth a look." (Source: USA Today Hotel Hotsheets)

Once a rumor gets out it takes on a life of its own and nothing can stop it. If I didn’t know you guys, I’d believe it too, based on so many tellings in so many places, including a major newspaper.

Once is funny- twice is an indication of exceptionally poor research. Reading a few entries would have revealed the previous speculation. You guys deserve better than snitty and entirely false charges laid by people who can’t even fact check!
I’m happy to stage a protest outside their offices- if you send a plane ticket! :-b
