The World Is Not Flat
Lee LeFever has just unleashed his new travel website, “The World Is Not Flat”. Lee and his wife are taking a year off to go on a trip around the world and are going to be making posts from the far corners of the globe. Thankfully, they now have a spiffy Bryght/Drupal/Raincity powered site to post to!
Lee says:
“When we started telling people about our plans for the trip, we found that people love to share their travel experiences. We would write what we could on a napkin or envelope and eventually lose those valuable tidbits.
So, we figured there must be a way to collect and organize similar travel experiences using a web site. We started looking for ways to have a travel blog that also enabled our friends to share their experiences with us on the Web. This was the original inspiration for TwinF.”
It’s great to see this finally take off, and users have already submitted some good travel suggestions. So sign up already, and submit your favorite travel destinations!
Of particular note, make sure to check out the cool Google maps integration with Drupal (Coded up by yours truly, of course!). I’m going to stick this Drupal google map code up in CVS sandbox soon, so if anyone wants to play with it, dive in.
Happy trails Lee!
