The biscuit monster's favorite hotel product, DoubleTree has just launched a fresh travel-themed social media online site called "DTour. " Why should you care? Because to increase it, they're giving away six all-inclusive trips around the globe. Yup, free!
The DTour site is going to be a digital scrapbook, allowing users to write their own stories, photos and videos on to an interactive Google map—thus sharing their travel methods for a particular destination, and possibly being inspired by that experiences of others.
According to a promotional video posted on the website, DTour (which was developed together with Google and lives using a YouTube channel) aims to "redefine like you would plan and share your travels" and give "inspiration to help strategy the trip you've always had to take. "
Some of the travel tips are somewhat useful, like a Seattle video showing a 2-acre mountain / hill bike trail built within the I-5. Though others are additional questionable: do we should preferably be cruising the Chicago, il River with some schmoozy travel talk-show host? Or watching a rerun on the Lonely Planet video approximately music venues in Nashville? (We'll just do it answer that one in your case: nope. )
We can't say DoubleTree is doing anything new here. Facebook and Twitter are about all the "travel sharing" social media you can easily handle right now, and we tend to build great tips on where to start in certain places definitely asking our friends or colleagues that know about the destination we're considering a visit to.
Still, though. If slapping slightly video up onto Metacafe is all we gotta do to win a complimentary trip, then sure, rely us in.
What about you? Will you be increasing the online DTour "community"? Is this an effective trip-planning tool? Let us know with the comments below!
