Go visit the Mayan ruins while you’re at it.
You can do so much while at a destination that’s unrelated to work and still deduct it as a business expense. I went to Universal Studios when I was in Orlando for other reasons for instance. Take the really expensive guided tour if you have a lot of gross to get rid of. Just a suggestion.

I’m curious, does everybody from the show get free trips or is it just Scoble?
Did Rocky get to go too?
I assume there was a board resolution to set aside X amount of cash for business vacations with the VC members ect. But does it include everybody or just Scoble himself?
I kind of think it would suck for the rest of the people if that was the case.
I know networks and even cable shows bring staff along.

Rocky isn’t here. Forbes paid my way. Not PodTech.

“Forbes paid my way. Not PodTech.”
I wonder how they reconcile buying trips for people who aren’t employees to Cancun?
I love how big corporations get away with murder at the IRS, but when an individual tries to claim a questionable dependant, all hell breaks loose. I guess they count on there being so much paperwork that it all gets lost in an audit.

Here is my 24 Hours of Flickr contribution. You missed a glorious Spring day on the San Mateo coast.

Here is what I’ve been thinking about today:
- Mexico city shakes a bit, someone twitters it, techmeme goes crazy, A-List bloggers go so far as to video phone calls with “survivors”, wrap themselves in the cloak of “see what twitter can do”, and count the web hots
- a major disaster occurs in Kansas where real tragedy happens, perhaps nary a twitter to be twitted (from what I can tell), and nothing…silence…
Not surprisingly, there must not be any gain from faux concern in an actual tragedy for the A-List.

Who Knew: what tragedy are you talking about? And, I wasn’t on Twitter much this past week. So, unless someone brings things to my attention I don’t always learn about them.
Ahh, tornadoes? Just did a Google news search. http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&ned=us&ie=UTF-8&ncl=1115930780

Who knew meant that he thinks A-list bloggers are crybabies who dramatize and blow up any minor event to get sympathy and traffic. I don’t think he was specifically referring to Robert in this case.

Chris: Well, if you go to Twitter search http://twittermap.com/search/ and search for “Kansas” you’ll see plenty of people are talking about the disaster. Search for “French” and you’ll see plenty of people talking about the French Election today.
