Only one week left to sign up for the Hostel Management Unconference in Austria

Hi Everyone,

Just a quick reminder that there is still a week left to register for the Hostel Management Unconference in Austria:
http://www.hostelmanagement.com/unconference/2009/grunau

The Unconference is a meetup where hostel managers can participate in small group discussions about issues that affect the hostel industry.

Examples of discussion topics:

How hostels can work together as partners instead of competition
How to get top ratings on hostel websites like Hostelworld
Offline marketing ideas
Bedbug prevention and control
Booking engine issues
How to make hostelling more popular worldwide
Social media marketing (Facebook, Twitter, etc.)
Hostels and the recession
and much more!

It’s your choice what topics you would like to discuss. Picture something like the HostelManagement.com forums, but in person.

Hope to see you there!

New Hostel Directory Layout

I’ve improved the tag cloud feature on the hostels page, and also added a search box.

The first directory of hostels with a tag cloud?
