I just wanted to alert the girls on the East that the Verizon strike (from Maine to Virginia) is affecting the hotels that use Verizon for internet access. The strike so far has been hitting businesses hard in my area. I did incall last week and there was NO internet! I use google voice, and sure I can access it from my phone, but it is so much easier to log into my account, and return calls from there. I wasn't even planning on running an ad, I just wanted to call some of my regulars and tell them I was available. But, all of my regulars phone numbers are in my google voice account. It wasn't impossible, but it sure was a pain! It was easier for me to go to to a friends w/my laptop and run an ad than it was to try to use my phone to access my google voice account. (Had no privacy to make calls from her house) Just make sure ahead of time that the hotel has internet when making reservations until this strike is over.
