Fernando de Noronha Travel Guide: An Introduction - Fernando de Noronha is the largest of 21 islands that make up an archipelago in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean some 350 kilometers off the coast of Northeastern Brazil. The region is home to some 230 species of fish, 15 kinds of coral reefs, five types of sharks, two species of sea turtles, and the spinner dolphin – a species found only there and in the South Pacific. Sundry migratory birds use the islands as a way station. Read more: http://www.brazilmax.com/news.cfm/tborigem/pl_northeast/id/23
Búzios Travel Guide - A visit by Brigitte Bardot in 1964 sparked the transformation of Armação de Búzios (its official name) from an isolated fishing village into the St. Tropez of South America. A better comparison perhaps might be with the Spanish island Ibiza, but in any case the ambiance on this amoeba-shaped peninsula is more reminiscent of the Mediterranean than anywhere else in Brazil.

Some Reasons Why Brazil Fails at Tourism - Members of the foreign press corps sat down to lunch a few weeks ago with David Barioni Neto, the new president of the Brazilian airline TAM.

CNN.com: Brazil's high-tech hub grows in Sao Paulo's Brooklin – BrazilMax’s Bill Hinchberger is interviewed about his old neighborhood: http://edition.cnn.com/2009/TECH/04/08/digitalbiz.berrini/. See the BrazilMax report that inspired the article: http://www.brazilmax.com/news1.cfm/tborigem/pl_southcentral/id/2
Intute – Here’s how Intute describes itself: “With millions of resources available on the Internet, it can be difficult to find useful material. Our subject specialists review and evaluate thousands of resources to help you choose the key websites in your subject... Intute is created by a consortium of seven universities, working together with a whole host of partners.” Here is how it describes BrazilMax: “This website presents thoroughly researched information about Brazil in all the aspects of its life. One particular section describes the different area of Brazil, carefully mixing geographical information with tourist attractions, providing access to maps... This amply illustrated site is a good, attractively presented introduction to the life, geology and history of Brazil, originally designed for the visitor but also informative and thorough for the undergraduate user.” Check out the listing: http://www.intute.ac.uk/cgi-bin/fullrecord.pl?handle=20090713-07561121
Vagablogging: Ditch the guidebook for a good website? – A leading travel blog asks a rhetorical question and answers it by citing BrazilMax as an example: “When doing pre-trip research, finding a good website feels like striking gold. This happened to me when I discovered Leif Pettersen’s travelogue. I was planning a trip to Myanmar (Burma) at the time, and it was hard finding good info. His long, detailed posts were a godsend. As I travel around Southeast Asia, I notice lots of backpackers using Travel Fish to look up guesthouses. The only problem is that it’s so good that I wish it covered more countries, like Malaysia and Indonesia. Rick Steves, host of the travel show, has lots of Europe tips at his website. Some of the best websites are run by frequent visitors/long-time expats to that region or country. ReidOnTravel is a fantastic resource for Vietnam, as is BrazilMax for that country.” Read the full entry: http://www.vagablogging.net/ditch-the-guidebook-for-a-good-website.html
The Biocontrol Beat blog included a citation of BrazilMax as part of an item that featured Hermione Bicudo at Universidade Estadual Paulista. Hermione is pioneering the recycling of biodegradable used coffee grounds, a ubiquitous waste product of modern caffeinated societies, for control of mosquitoes spreading dengue fever and other killer diseases. See the full post: http://biocontrolbeat.wordpress.com/2009/08/02/coffee-grounds-for-mosquito-control/. While you’re at it, read a two-part expert from Mark Pendergrast’s book on the history of coffee Uncommon Grounds: http://www.brazilmax.com/news4.cfm/tborigem/fe_fooddrink/id/4 and http://www.brazilmax.com/news4.cfm/tborigem/fe_fooddrink/id/3. The excerpt is illustrated by classic paintings by the 20th century modernist Brazilian master Candido Portinari.
Priscilla Ramos da Silva cited BrazilMax in her masters thesis on Brazilian art in the 1990s at Unicamp: http://www.scribd.com/doc/8666049/Corpo-e-Artes-Visuais-nos-Anos-1990
