So-so travel site
I didn't know what to expect when I first visited About.com/Travel, but I found it to be somewhat informative for certain people and places. All major cities were very well represented on the website. There were excellent in depth articles on every major attraction in New York, L.A, Chicago, Las Vegas, and Orlando. Sadly I couldn't find many articles on the small towns that I visit from time to time for work, but I was able to get some great ideas for road trips through the mid west. After searching the website for a good 15 minutes I came to the conclusion that this site is really geared toward the masses, which isn't a bad thing, but it doesn't separate them from other travel sites. There was no information on the little buried hot spots across the world that only the locals visit. A lot of the topics on About.com/Travel can be found on the front page of Yahoo. Even though I found this website's overall viewpoint to be generic I was able to comb through the different categorizes to find some useful information for future references.
