Thing 33! Travel 2.0

Thing 33 was a fun one for me! I enjoyed exploring many of the travel sites listed. Lost Girls was an interesting blog. It was fun to check Baden-Baden (where we were years ago) in My Kugelhopf. In Notes from the Road, I enjoyed the great photos. The Texas Hill Country, Harmony and Lanesboro, MN and the SPAM Museum in Austin were places I checked. For review sites, I liked the collective wisdom of http://www.boo.com/ and plan to return to that site. It was fun to see what I could find on the Prague Castle and other places where we had been in Prague. I also checked the opinions of the Holiday Inn Capitol in Washington, DC where we stayed in March and found that I agreed with them. The Newseum http://www.newseum.org/index.aspx in Washington DC, is just a little more than a year old, so with nothing listed for it, I can add something myself! Gusto was fun for 10 Great Places on Earth You Don't Want to Miss. On http://www.vcarious.com/ I enjoyed the photos of Barcelona.

I definitely plan to do more exploring of Travel 2.0 and added some travel entries to Delicious. We booked hotels in Anchorage and Vancouver for this summer earlier. Now I plan to read more about them on sites that I learned about in Thing 33.

Although the sites in Thing 33 may apply more to public libraries, I could probably find some use in the Research QuickStart subject pages that we are adding to our library site at Minnesota West.
