Tracking Your Travel

Over the years, I've used a variety of methods to keep friends and family updated on my travels. It began with simply posting photos on a private web site and sending email to them letting them know how to view the pictures. More recently I've posted photos to Flickr where I keep all my online photo collections. Still, that isn't optimal since Flickr really isn't made specifically for travel.

Last week we (my family) took a short trip, and it just happened to coincide with my discovery of a relatively new web site service specifically created for travelers. The site is RealTravel and is for all kinds of travel, not just RVing.

Nonetheless, I found it to be perfect for my purposes.
I was able to set locations that show up on a map, create entries about what was going on, upload photos (or simply collect them from my existing Flickr account), and invite friends via email. It's easy to navigate and easy to use. More important... it's free.
