I am today flying to Gold Coast and Tweed Heads for the ATEC conference. ATEC is Australia’s main tourism promotion body and the annual symposium attracts over 500 delegates.

As part of this year there will be a breakout day for the backpacker industry, which is being held in Byron Bay. I am speaking on Internet Marketing and Web 2.0 along with presentations by Martin Kelly of Travel.biz and Paul Fisher of Total Travel.

Looking forward to catching up with old friends also, I will post any exciting happenings I discover during the rest of the wekk.

You can download the notes (with the extra freebie bit) and powerpoint presentation here.
