Port Elizabeth 24 January 2011

24 January 2011 By Alan Straton

A quick roundup of mentions of Port Elizabeth in blogs around the world for Monday 24 January 2011.

MyPE provides this roundup in order to promote Port Elizabeth and to encourage fellow bloggers to expand their coverage of Port Elizabeth and surrounds.

The blogosphere mentions of Port Elizabeth are presently dominated by Indian bloggers commenting on, and rehashing the cricket news as it pertains to our neck of the woods. See: Non Electrifying Cricket for a report about the Proteas win against India on Friday 21 January 2011.

I must give kudos to Nelson Mandela Bay Tourism (NMBT) who organised tours of Port Elizabeth for the visiting foreign cricket media last week ahead of the Proteas vs India ODI. It is the first time that I have become aware of such a pro-active ‘ambush marketing’ initiative.

Well done NMBT – I am sure that your actions will bring reward for Port Elizabeth tourism.
