Ah, the days when you can embed Facebook’s IPO. Madness I tell ya!

What do you think about the new Facebook timeline?

Ushuaïa Ibiza Beach Hotel announced the launch of their Facebook sharing initiative – a first for the hotel industry. Hotel guests, and everyone who attends the concerts (and they have a lot of concerts), will be given the option of wearing a slim RFID wristband synchronized to their Facebook profile. With a swipe of the wrist, they can check in, take pictures and post status according to where they are positioned in the hotel… how? With completely non-intrusive Facebook polls! Love it or hate it? Help me decide… (thanks to Nomad Lab for the tip-off)

As an editor of Jetsetter.com I get to peak around the four corners of the world in search of premier hotels and adventures for our members. I know, it’s a tough life… but even I need a break from ‘work’ sometimes. Summer is my favorite time to hit the road and what better way to get away than by                   stopping by some of the world’s best party destinations.

We’re touring the international party circuit this week on Jetsetter, with stops in South Beach, LA, Monte Carlo, Cartagena and — yes — Ibiza, for our very first sale there, and hooking you up with insider access, specialized guides, expert advice and some seriously special treats.

All you have to do? Register to become a member of Jetsetter and follow our feed. Ask questions via facebook, spread the word via twitter and stay up-to-date as we take you around the world… one party at a time. I promise, I won’t bite. 

We’re kicking things off on Friday, July 30 so get packing…

I think I’m turning Japanese, I think I’m turning Japanese, I really think so.
