Social Media and Travel: Wherever You Go Take your Friends with You.
The use of Social Media tools such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Flickr have not only radically changed the way we communicate in our daily lives it has also changed the way we travel. Out are the days of waiting 24 hours for vacation photos in print and slideshows in a dimly lit living room (I can still hear the feint click-a-click of my dad’s projector), In are real-time status updates, instant photo sharing and couchsurfing requests. In fact it's almost an expectation that you will keep your friends and family informed via the web. I’d like to share my experience using these tools and how it helped me during my trip around the world.
