Web 2 Site of Choice Thing 17

Deciding on a specific Web 2 website is difficult with so many interesting options available.

So I went to the Web 2.0 Directory on Go2Web20.net. I narrowed my search to the category “Travel“.

I then had a look at the Travelistic site. A website hosting travel videos from members. Videos are tagged for easy retrieval. The website have the typical Web2 features of sharing option to bookmarkers and webblogs and the opportunity for contacting friends.

I found a few interesting videos about Argentina.

Another interesting website was Mygazines.net where one can compile your own publication, choosing from articles and compilations. As a member one can also add articles, compilations and publications. I signed up and did a search for material. I could easily find and view articles. Adding these to my favourite list didn’t work. I signed in twice and received error on page messages. I followed the instructions, I read the help function, it still didn’t work, I left.

Time is precious and if a website or application doesn’t work, it isn’t worth spending time on it. Especially when there are dozens of similar applications and websites available.

User friendliness is the key to the success of Web2 tools and applications.
