I am nominating the blog I manage, the Viator Travel Blog (http://travelblog.viator.com/) in the group-written travel blog category.
Our list of contributors is here. I’ve also created a Best of the Viator Blog archive to highlight some of our most popular posts.
FYI - the Viator blog was also nominated last week as one of the “Best Consumer Travel Blogs” by the UK travel industry site Travolution.

I think you should consider that new Boarding Area blog. I’ve become somewhat addicted to it and while i read you on it Upgrade, hope it doesn’t disqualify it. While it has any number of bloggers on the front page, it does seem like a group-written blog. Great website, here’s the link:

The Perceptive Travel Blog
The Perrin Post
Vagablogging
March 30th, 2008 at 9:05 am |
I nominate http://blogofdreams.com
It is written by two educators in China who travel and publish positive stories about life in the Middle Kingdom. All the monies from The Dreamblogue goes directly to The Library Project to build libraries in orphanages and rural villages in Asia.
March 30th, 2008 at 10:21 am |

and
http://www.vagablogging.net
March 30th, 2008 at 11:52 am |
I am nominating http://blogofdreams.com
This is a well written blog, informative and very positive blog about China. It is written by American ex-pats teaching at the university level in Guangzhou. Donations to The Dreamblogue are used for charitable projects such as The Library Project, which builds libraries in school and orphanages in rural China.
March 30th, 2008 at 9:28 pm |
I am nominating http://blogofdreams.com/ See comments of other nominators - great pictures, which are presented with cultural context, not just as pretty travel pics. And it has cohesion, no doubt because it’s a collaborative group blog by very perceptive people who work together, not just a bunch of posts by different authors.

www.bravenewtraveler.com

The IgoUgo Travel Blog: www.igougo.com/travel_blog
It’s the only blog in the travel blogosphere that aggregates trends, stories, and recommendations from thousands of real travelers (culled from IgoUgo content) in a compelling, timely, relevant way. Every other travel community blog out there is a copy and paste job, a product blog, or a blog that pokes fun at its community. The writing and the topics are not only great, but the concept is original. It’s the only blog of its kind.
April 1st, 2008 at 4:57 pm |
I nominate The Perrin Post.
April 2nd, 2008 at 6:36 am |
