While I have the utmost respect for travel agents (I studied to be one myself before changing career track ideas), there’s something I absolutely love about websites that allow your average amateur at home to help you with your travel. Many sites feature sections where you can review your opinions on hotels, restaurants, and […]
PlanetEye is a fun little website that gives you a chance to get to know your chosen destination a little better, almost like seeing it before you arrive. You can also use it to help plan out your itinerary depending on your interests.
It works by using over 70,000 photos that are geotagged to help […]
It’s rare to come across places that don’t offer payment with your debit card, but it’s still important to know where the nearest ATM is when you’re traveling. For one thing, you don’t want to be stuck if you do need cash, and for another, if you use the right bank you’ll save […]
I read something interesting today. Back in 1989, when they took the Wall down between East and West Germany, officials in Berlin were so eager to remove all traces of what was a terrible reminder to the people who lived through it that they cleared it completely within months. What they didn’t anticipate […]
As a parent, I can tell you that it is an enormous pain to have to carry a car seat around. When you install it in the car, it’s done and that’s great, but if you’re going to be flying or taking a train, then you need to put the car seat in your […]
I wonder if travel agents are starting to hate the Internet, considering all the things your average traveler can do themselves from the comfort of their home and without having to pay a percentage.
There are countless ways to track the best airfare, the best hotel costs, and so on. But you’re busy, right? […]
Shutterfly, a long-running photo publishing site, has taken travel by the hand, and they want you to Hit The Road this summer. With summer weather peaking, many families are still trying to do family road trips, despite the cost of gas. Hit The Road helps to give you some inspiration on destinations for […]
Everyone has heard by now that on July 11th, Apple is launching their new iPhone 3G. The good news is that it will be retailing for $199 unlike the first generation iPhone that ran 600 bucks.
I’m excited about it - but there’s something that could be useful for travelers that you may […]
Not everyone who travels rents a car. If you’re driving to your destination it’s not a problem but renting a car if you fly there may not be possible. If you don’t have a credit card, don’t have enough credit available, or if you don’t meet age restrictions, you won’t be able to […]
You can always count on Google to do something useful and fun. Their Panoramio site is a photo sharing community. That doesn’t sound much different from your average photo sharing site, right?
Except with Panoramio, you organize all your photos based on location with the help of Google Maps. When you […]
