  Digital tools mandatory to speed up the tourism recovery after Pandemic The most affected hospitality industry is without a doubt that of tourism and hospitality. As the restrictions persist, I want to highlight a few tools that, at low cost, can help this industry mitigate its losses.        1.  A website, a responsive email address, and social media page       If till now, some tourist entities were found thanks to the reviews from tourists on a different platform, now this is one of the most important assets to survive in this time. The following information must be included and instantly updated: operating hours, maps, how a tourist can reach the destination, and a contact form. Use social media not only for beautiful pictures, but offering useful details as well.     2. Prediction for avoiding crowded places      This is not a tool for particular tourist entities, but for local authorities and big museums. Today, there are big data about the touristic flow. Machine learning can

How to set up a Page(and add content) in Blogger I choose the keep my websites on Blogger for many reasons: it's free, easy to manage, templates integrated and it works perfectly with other Google products like Adsense or Gmail. Creating pages was one of my biggest challenge when I start to working on it. I wanted to keep my articles separated and somehow easy to find. As well, Blogger is based on Label which is the equivalent of hashtag in social media. There are two components in creating Pages: 1. Added a new ones in "Pages" 2. Configure it in Layout Pages. Remember: always in this order. The pages created in "Pages" initially won't appear on site. You will have to go on Layout, select "Pages" as widget(like in the picture attached). Check Visible - Show Pages and in the left column the pages you want to be visible.

Data protection: California Consumer Privacy Act(CCPA) will take effect starting January 1st 2020 "Is this a new GDPR?" was my first thought. Actually there are some differences, but for sure it has the same purpose regarding the usage of personal data. The good news is CCPA is addressed to Californian based companies with a revenue higher than 25 millions dollars(or those companies that are selling data) and affects users that are living in California. The bad news is those companies are the giants titans from IT and adverting industry, so yes, it will affects almost all developers that are using global monetization as a business model. GDPR is mainly focused on "Cookies consent" and CCPA has "Do Not Sell My Personal Information" as a choice in the interaction with the user.
