I've been a big fan of Netvibes for the last two years. This is where I get all the RSS updates from the
Travel blogs I follow. But Netvibes has also plenty of widgets that can make trip planning very easy for travelers. I wonder why tourist offices are not jumping on this tool to create dedicated page for their location. Building a page is a no-brainer and with the RSS updates, lists of travel deals or events will get updated automatically .
As an example I have created a special page for Travelers coming to Dublin
http://www.netvibes.com/voyageek#Visit_Dublin
On this page, you can find the weather forecast (much needed for Ireland!), recent Dublin pictures from Flickr, a to-do list with some activities that I recommend, hotel deals, events hapenning in the Irish capital, videos about the city, a map, and Irish news.
If you use the page, let me know if it was useful and if you want to suggest additional widgets, please let me know in the comments.
