A Travel Voice You Should Know

March 13, 2009 | Posted in: Did You Know, Educate Yourself, Favorites

Yen Lee, the co-founder and guru of UpTake, has written a really insightful post for industry insiders or anyone else that wants to dig into the back story of where we are in the air travel shopping industry – and where things are heading. Lee’s long history in the world of travel makes him eminently qualified to provide recent and historical background on travel issues – plus – you always want to check out his crystal ball for predictions and analysis. And did I mention UpTake has blogs on vacation destinations, special attractions, beaches, restaurants and lodging? In fact, UpTake has a witty take on NY’s Best Irish Bars for St Patrick’s Day. Take a look at UpTake, with its unique way of querying and presenting aggregated destination and attraction review content. This is definitely a site to watch in the coming months and years.

   It is indeed insightful, and probably more than a little controversial. But true insights, like innovation, tend to stir things up . . .
