Christine Gilbert on the ebook (via Twitter for Travelers Ebook):
As a traveler, my tweets are often aligned with where I’m going next, where I should go, or how I’m getting there. However it wasn’t until I put out a tweet last fall about taking a bus from Cancun, Mexico to Quetzaltenango, Guatemala that I suddenly got it. Within moments, six other travelers who had taken a similar route were advising me. They looked up schedules and helped me decipher the bus terminal codes. The directed me to a tiny website that specialized in the exact bus route I would need to take. The owner of that site contacted me. In the end I got the answer I needed. What had taken me hours of research online was completed in less than 20 minutes on Twitter. I knew this was a new way to travel.
This ebook is really just a compilation of every bookmark, trick, tip and solution I’ve ever found, used or just sounded cool to me — related to travel.
The ebook includes chapters on travel experts, planning, finding travel deals, and the future plus an appendix with information on how to get started with Twitter and customizing your Twitter account. A terrific read for travelers of all ages.
