Great review! You should also have a look at twalaba (http://www.twalaba.com), one new and revolutionary facebook connect solution designed to make people’s journeys more “social”.

Use your facebook friends list to conduct hundreds of flight search at once and get results delivered quickly! Other features include “your friends on a map”, “Destination Advisor” (tell us what your ideal temperature is, and we will tell you which of your friends you should visit), travel guides & events, and much more!

There is another new to 2011 Travel Social Network everyone should keep their eye on. It is called TravelByTravelers.com and is based in the USA. You can make friends leave reviews and even post reccommendations on friends profiles. It has a full locations based system that brings in hotels, events, restaurants, the works. It does look new, but growing and I will be watching this one. http://travelbytravelers.com

When speaking of travel and Tourism, Tourists Guild is another useful site.

It is a one stop portal for those who wish to get precise and up-to-date tourism information, as well as easing out sharing and promotion of travel stories using a social media platform.

Tourists Guild can be accessed at http://www.touristsguild.com/

Yelp is fantastic and only growing. Its ranked #24 out of millions of websites and has something like 34 million website hits per month–which I believe is unique hits. I’ve noticed, however, that I’ve done a couple searches on my iPhone on Yelp and various businesses have had the wrong addresses or no telephone number. For hotels wanting to capitalize on this social network its critical to provide updates to this info. Nothing like leaving money on the table when you could have rectified the situation in 5 to 10 minutes.

Hotels are uniquely positioned to host Yelp events if they are in a major city (NYC, SF, LA, DC, ATL) which tend to have elite Yelp groups. They could host an app, beer, and wine tasting. I don’t know what Yelp charges to set up these events, but its a great way to offer your services to community influencers who are extremely passionate about food.
