Ok site is back up! Sorry about that!


I still like what you're doing here, but I feel that data entry should be more user friendly, more dynamic. As it is, it looks like something you would use for the backend, like an improved version of phpmyadmin. Tagging would be useful. It would also be great if you could pull more content from the linked websites and maybe base the design around shorter descriptions. Shorter content, which I assume would be more common than detailed guides, makes the pages look kinda empty.

Hope it helps. I'm only writing this because I'd probably use the service if it gets more polish. Oh, and it would be nice if I could make my guides private, so that I could use the site not only for past journeys, but for planning as well.


Thanks for the feedback! You are right, I am grabbing the extra data from the linked websites, but I don't think it is displaying properly.

I'll also add a private field as mentioned. For tags, would you want to tag both guides and lists or just one of them?


Both, I guess. If the user is searching for a romantic location, then it's a guide tag. If he knows where he is going already, or if it just isn't a themed trip (other examples for themed trips: art, nightlife, family, outdoors...) then list tags (or even list item tags) are more useful.


Ah sounds good. Btw I fixed the problem where some data wasn't showing (the lists should show more location now). Also I added the capability of private guides.
