Wikitravel
I've heard of Wikitravel before but have never personally used it or explored the site myself. The concept though is generally the same as Wikipedia as it was noted to have been an inspiration in the creation of Wikitravel. It could be a potentially very helpful website to people seeking travel advice and tips, especially if a specific destination is easily locatable through their search engine. The destinations that are edited frequently provide more accurate and up-to-date information for site visitors. The negative side is that it still is a wiki and can be formatted by ANYONE. This leaves room for false, outdated and inaccurate information as well which may misguide those who read articles. If wikis could find a way to have the information posted verified perhaps the credibility of such sites would increase over time.
