I’m not sure this belongs here, but in reading an article in a recent Newspaper – The Maryland Coast Dispatch, Dec 9, 2005 , it appears to me that the Ocean City MD tourism commision continues to stay in the 1980′s relative to media advertising concepts to promote the Ocean City MD vacation resort. $2 plus million budget and $150,000 to a media company contract renewed to continue down the same path. Statistics now indicate the INTERNET is the preferred media for consumers seeking vacation information, yet I’d suspect the media company continues in the same mode and misses the mark when spending the marketing budget and using the majority of the funds for tv and ink print advertising? The city is virtually vacant now on this day of Jan 20th 2006 and potential visitors are NOW searching the internet looking to make decisions regarding their prospects and destinations for a quality vacation or getaway in the coming spring, summer and fall of 2006. Many of them are actually searching now on AT The Beach – www.AtBeach.com for vacation options.
