Good afternoon, Dave, and a hearty welcome to Go-Lo! It's great to have you with us -- and we think you'll find our site productive as well as interesting and enjoyable.

To get the most out of the site, you may want to take a few minutes to join several of our many groups which you might find of particular interest, such as Media Only, Cruising, Airfares/Air Travel, Eating/Drinking the World, Canada, and various others covering many topics and most destinations throughout the Americas, Africa, Europe, and the rest of the world.

FYI, on your profile you'll see a blue bar marked "Text Box," which you can turn into a box containing not just text but also photos and even videos about yourself, your interests, and your media work.

Finally, if you would, please be so kind as to spread the word among your travel-interested friends, family, and colleagues. It's fast and easy to use our "INVITE" function above left on the navigation bar to enter e-mails (even your whole list at once!). We'd also of course be grateful if you have the occasion to cover Go-Lo in any of your outlets.

We wish you a great rest of 2009 and look forward to hearing more from you...
