Let me start by giving my thanks to Brad for the great work he’s done in not only putting together this website but for having the only one bag specific website that allows feedback and discussion from its readers. While others strictly give their biased opinion, One Bag One World has been a forum for all to share their experiences and preferences when it comes to “one bagging it.” And I plan to keep it that way.
Over the next few weeks and months, you’ll see some minor changes to the website. I plan to streamline it a bit, update some of the informational content as well as add to it. The blog postings will also increase to include more travel related news and stories.
I’m also inviting all of you to get more involved. If you have an item that you believe may be useful to onebaggers, then why not write a review and send it to me. If I feel it’s appropriate, I’ll add it to our blog. (I do insist that anyone writing a review have no connection to the company making or selling the product. You must strictly be a user. )
Remember to follow us on Twitter and RSS, and yes, I’m working on a Facebook page. (Not being very tech savvy it takes me awhile to figure out how to do a lot of this stuff.)
Brad also mentioned finances. This website has never made a profit and is still losing money every month. While I’m going to do everything I can to increase revenue, I promise that I will not allow any person or company to “buy” my support or influence my reviews.
So, there you have it. I wish Brad much success in his new business and to all of you I look forward to all of us working together to promote “one bagging.”
