Judging by the number of users on this gadget (764,697) they must be doing something right. This gadget is a classic photo feed that gives you new travel photos with each page refresh. The photos are pretty nice, but there are two pieces missing here 1) none of these photos are available in high-res, probably because the authors just grabbed them off image search somewhere and 2) the gadget has none of the features we’ve come to expect with online photos like sharing, commenting, tagging etc. Clicking on an image takes you through to “etravelreviews.com,” which looks like it could use some work itself. The inclusion of a Google custom search for travel looks like it’s geared toward monetization rather than adding functionality, but might be useful for some users. Bottom line, good for eyecandy but not much else.

Hey there I came across this site by chance, I was searching Yahoo for Oahu activities when I came upon your blog, I must say your webpage is very interesting I truely think the content, its astounding!. I’m in a bit of a rush at the moment to totally absorb your site but I have saved the location of it and also signed up for your RSS feeds. I will be back when I have more time. Bravo for a excellent blog.

eventhough I devote nearly all of my time on the internet participating in online games like zynga poker or farmville, I always like to take some time to browse a handful of blogs and forums now and then and I’m happy to report this latest piece of writing is genuinely fairly good and radically improved than half the various other worthless junk I read today , at any rate i’m off to have fun with a smattering of hands of facebook poker
