Today Jordan Chark published a list with 75+ US travel sites at Mashable. He recently wrote a similar post called Travel Hacking: Essential Sites for Summer Travelers. I link to these instead of updating and enriching my own List of Travel 2.0 and Social Travel Site.

Note: Thanks to Jordan’ s diligence and his post SHOPPING SPREE: 18 Sites for Social Shopping & Deals the same cost-efficient updating mechanism could be applied to my List of Shopping 2.0 and Social Shopping Sites, but that would be too much of resting on laurels of others.

List of Shopping 2.0 and Social Shopping Sites

In my previous post I enfranchised my travel bookmarks. Today comes the day of deliverance for all shopping bookmarks. As before, the list is not very well structured and I do apologize for that. A nice way to sort it would be to classify the sites as alternative product search mechanisms in one of the following categories (as suggested here):

Product, Price, Brand & Seller Comparison Shopping Engines
Deal Finders, Bargain Hunter & Discounted Shopping Engines
Social Shopping, Product Sharing & Recommendation Engines
Shopping Wikis, Buyers Reporting & Shopping Guide Engines
Consumer Reviews, Product Ratings & Consumer Guide Engines

Fresh

Fashion & Style

Unsorted

Deal Finder

Rate your socks off

List of Travel 2.0 and Social Travel Sites

For some time now I’ve been haphazardly bookmarking travel sites and – since we are where we are and when we are now – most of them can frivolously be slapped with a “web 2.0″ tag. As I haven’t seen many compilations on that topic I’m hereby ingenuously giving birth to yet another 2.0 weblist (gosh!). Please comment sweepingly and intensely (as you always do) since this list is obviously quite unformed and fragmentary and I’d love to see it being evolved with your help (for the sake of the crowded planet).

Update: I should note that most of the items below I’ve discovered while browsing similar lists on other blogs. For example here, here and there and many, many other places.

Communities – Wikis – Ratings/Reviews – Mashups

Booking

Miscellaneous

Travel Together

Travel videos

German

This Blog is about web 2.0, the wisdom of crowds, the long tail, social networks, intrinsic collaboration and collective intuition in fine granularity. Of course I know what all this is all this is all about - otherwise I wouldn't be blogging about it, right?
