I agree with the frustration of this information overload. I am working on a weather and travel website myself and can't believe which websites sometimes get above in google...

Okay... so joobili is cool, but I haven't been able to functionally use it... it's neat, a novelty.. but I haven't been able to use it meaningfully.

But Foursquare? Whoah. Like... whoah.

Great article. Definitely some really great stuff happening in the Travel 2.0 space. We just launched our site www.traxo.com into public beta. We are trying to unlock travel reservations currently booked and stored across multiple travel sites and allow the user to take control of their aggregated travel itinerary and manage and share it with their friends.

Do most people have the patience to sit through a video? When I'm review hunting I generally want to get in and get out as quickly as possible, it's a sting operation. If I need a restaurant for tonight? I google some reviews, make sure the star ratings are good, read a few sentences here and there, and then my mind is made up. I'm either going to that restaurant or I'm continuing my search elsewhere.

I am shocked at all those sites on your blog... they are all incredibly cool. As for functionality, some seem to abstract or non specific to really appeal to masses. Most people have somewhere to go (and even when they don't, they have a vague idea of where they might go) that is quite specific.... I can't imagine some of those "enter the date and see where you can go" sites working out in the long run. I also want to get excited about the innovation and new world of travel... but there is a difference between "cool" and "useful". For example.... twihotels might be useful, it doesn't look that cool... and they do have a stumbling block of critical mass to cover. But then something like joobili which is endlessly cool but not really at all useful. At least to me.

In the end the more boring ones are likely the ones to work the longest... like the seatguru I mentioned, or something like TV Trip, which has bad music over hotel videos but it is INCREDIBLY effective in doing what it is meant to do.

There are so many sites out there... I am excited to explore these and more. It is really interesting to see exactly what each of the guys think too... I am with Josiah that video is going to play a huge role.. in communicating, welcoming, brand building, and exploring relationships... not just providing a look at the hotel.

But in the end... function will dominate form... and I think this excercise has convinced me that a site like Kayak is going to be hard to beat. Of course, I could wait 2 months and be proven wrong. I *am* interested in the obvious:

When will big UGR sites like TripAdvisor or Yelp start allowing mobile uploads and video?
