I will have to check that information out. It would be nice to see what Latin America is doing to handle tourism in these times. However, my task is to research and report on our beloved Nottingham.

As far as China, Instagram is not blocked by the government. When we were there I posted a picture and then had it posted to my FaceBook page, which was interesting. I have a few followers from China on Instagram. But remember, there development is much more dire in the rural areas (like the village we stayed in near the GW). The migrant workers wont be using social media or even have access to technology, so you present a situation that calls for innovative thinking.

Well Done, very informative. Although it could be nice to know the figures for latin american countries and their relationship with social media. Also, I read that you are a China fanatic since our trip to that marvelous country, have you ever thought about the impact of the massive media/internet firewall that the chinese population lives under and its relationship with the chinese economic development? That could be a good point to develop a new article, now that you are into it. Congrats!! and greetings my friend.

Thanks Greg! Yes I really enjoy writing about these types of topics and issues. Takes me back to the conversations we’ve held about cities in America. Hope you get a chance to read the next one. And music was and is my real gift, just a gift under the bed.

Good job Michael. You sound like a real writer. I can tell its you but your style has grown. This might be your real gift – writing articles instead of music (lol). Really, it is pretty good.
