Exercise 19

Since my passion is travel, I decided to look at the Web 2 awards under the travel area. I looked at Farecast first and found that was just really an American site. Not much point if you're not in the States. This was actually awarded the first place. The airfare predictions were all from US cities, nowhere else. So then had a look at the 3rd placegetter, Real Travel. This looked more interesting from the word go, but then when I tried doing a search on Samoa and accommodation, I could only get the hotel option. So it really seemed like it was geared to travellers doing the more expensive route. Don't think I'd ever use either of these tools. They do include travel planners, but then other sites do that too anyway. Interesting to see Facebook was in first place for the social networking. I think that's a great network to use, but then again, after my initial additions to the site and 'finding' friends, I haven't done much, so feel now I'm a bit anti-social!!
