hello Luke...i found a cool travl site last year, Iguana Go Travel, and booked a flight last month.I flew from Orlando to Indianapolis IN. non stop round trip ticket on Northwest for $167.00. Everything went smooth and cheap. check them out. www.IguanaGoTravel.com
Great list indeed except maybe for one of the latest launches missing being http://www.bringsome.com.
Not to plug it too much but I thought it'd deserve to be here..
bringsome.com is a free service that brings together travelers and people in need for foreign and home-country goods to have them arrange personal delivery.
'Arrange a ride' for your favorite goodies from all over the world.
I'd love to hear peoples feedback.

wow, no TripAdvisor.com? That's the first place I go to get reviews on hotels and ideas for things to do. I used Trip Advisor and Yahoo's Travel Planner for our West coast road trip this summer and had a blast!

with that many web 2.0 type of travel businesses, are they making travel easier? or, this many choices will make it hard to make a good(wish it's a good) decision. But regardless, it's nice to have them all in one place. Just need find time identify couple of useful ones.
FlightStats

I think you are missing FlightStats.com on this list, they actually supply many of these sites with their flight tracking information.
They have an extensive database tracking flights that goes back at least 4 years. Their historical data is totally invaluable, it saved me from taking a flight that had like a 40% on time arrival percentage. They also have a Mobile site so you can get flight information on the go.

check also travelleers.com out. It's still a tiny beta site but I like the attitue. It gives you video pictures and tips for your travels
A good new site is www.whl.travel, basically a travel site with a social conscience, plus they're run by local people in every destination they operate.

Road Trip Planner

Well, most of you already mentioned Trip Advisor which is a big hole in the above list. I would like to add two more:
Seat Guru - helps you pick the best seats on any type of plane you're about to fly on.
Tripwiser.com - a social trip planning service which lets you plan your road trip using the collective wisdom of other travelers. Tripwiser also integrates into Facebook very nicely (check their Going Places application).

Hi, great list of travel sites. I have used kayak.com in the past. Very good fare i got from them. Also if you need a travel guide to London Paris, Rome, New York or Toronto I found this site - http://www.gothereguide.com/eiffel+tower+tour+e...

I think the best mile/point tracker is USA Today Mile Tracker. It tracks 128 differnt programs, multiple accounts, history and allows you to drill down into a detailed view on each tracked account.
The current version is a downloadable program but the good news is they are only 2 weeks away from launching a new web based product that will allow for freedom of use from any where or any computing device.
I used to use kayak but recently I found Travelfusion.com a better choice, many routes and hotels are cheaper than what Kayak found. I love its Door-to-Door Estimation function in search result detailed page, which automatically calculate the extra time and money I will spend on the planning trip(I mean except the ticket and hotel): Check-in/out time in airport, duration & money in Transiting from airport to city/city to airport. Really helpful when traveling a place where I haven't visited before.
www.skoosh.com (has had really good rates on boutiqu-y hotels)

I think that this page does give a comprehensive list of all websites. There could be sections for sepciality websites. For example, there is a large gay travel community and one could look at websites like Gaypedia or at Orbitz which cater specifically to the Gay community. Similarly, there are websites catering to students like Studyplaces which cater to the student community.
Hello, I wanted to introduce my "creation". The site www.my365map.it a virtual tour guide, combining the power of maps (google api map) with the wealth of textual and photographic content on tourist attractions and interesting places in Italy, dedicated to those who want to travel, to tourists and those who simply want to know and discover our beautiful country! With this instrument, the tourists on holiday can see immediately on the map the monument which he tried, the beach so much dreamed, the stadium of the football favorite team. The portal has been structured on some key categories such as churches and natural beauties, monuments and archaeological sites, museums and culture, music and entertainment, sports and leisure, but the project is evolving and has a strong ambition to grow. Soon add the ability to insert ads on the map for hotels, restaurants, real estate and more. You can register and contribute to the growth of the portal can publish content in complete autonomy by placing a marker on the google map drag and drop. Neryo software as well as having implemented the entire software development has taken over along with his team graphics / designer to conduct the study and design of the logo and design layout of the site.
it sounds really nice, i will surely visit, but i am in the middle of a tight patch in my life and for at least a year i am not going anywhere. wat i am doing at this point is gathering as much information as possible and plan for next year. i was searching for property to let in central london for quite some time and i accidentally found this amazing website <a href="http://www.noagents24.com">no agents 24 with loads and loads of information about tips for tenants, tips for moving, hips. I really like my new house. i went out for some fresh air today early morning, although i am generally not the morning person type but i have to admit i really enjoyed it.
great info you can go around the world easyly with all the info given in this post...just Great!!!
