The sideways photo issue is a known and long-standing problem for many of us. I have the same problem with iPhone photos. The problem is that they can appear correctly oriented on non-Apple devices.
It has frankly been one of the reasons I've blogged less frequently because I have to take photos from my phone, transfer them to a desktop, resale them, and then load them to WordPress to prevent issues. I don't travel with the laptop I can do this on so often it means it's days before I can edit photos and often the timeliness of my intended post is gone.

Especially with Gary's giant push to sell "all your travel dreams" with credit cards these past few days. It was noticeably blunt, even for him

This article entitled "5 Signs That United is Finally Getting Better" isn't even an article, it's a link to a Forbes article:
Five Signs that United is Getting Better
Unfortunately, we were not granted permission to share the story here, but be sure to check out the interesting read at Forbes.

Point Me to the Plane wrote a nonsensical post about how AA is falsely advertising in its award charts because there is no way to go from a very specific airport in Africa to the South Pacific on one award. I pointed out in a comment that there is indeed a disclaimer covering such a circumstance that not all awards may actually be bookable - wouldn't you know it, I never made it past moderation.

They would make Most Honorable Chairman proud.
They are the Kim Jong Illest.
Okay... I'm done now

Okay, I've GOT to know...
Who is reading PMM?!
Seriously, this guy is always AT LEAST a day behind reporting news of any real value.
The only things he talks about are targeted Starbucks promos (which speaks for itself) and discount gift cards on eBay.
How is he still on BA? Aren't there minimum metrics? I would be astonished if he had an actual reader base

Lot's of folks. He is a featured blogger that means MANY views.
You don't have to be first to get readership. A guess is some ONLY read PM&M for content proveded.
Any post with "Starbucks and Stars" get's tons of hits from Google searches.
Again, see answers above. Beyond that, like many blogs, you have no idea how well PM&M is doing or how many are writing for PM&M.
Questions like these do show how little, even after all these years, anyone understands about the business of blogging. :-:

Says the person who had to change their logo (multiple times?) and then the name of their blog. ^ Guess no one here really understand the business?
