Last summer, I went to Hawaii and I turned in to Ian Wright, famous face and travel show host.
I always wanted to be a traveller and becoming a travel show host may be a big dream but that is something I started thinking about as I posted my Hawaii vacation video on travelistic.com.
It is a video sharing site for [tag-ice]travel videos[/tag-ice]. There are travel videos from all over the world, and a cool google map to help you find them.
This is unlike any other video hosting websites. It is unquely dedicated to the travelers all around the globe who love to share their stories and give some tips. The website started recently headed by one-time CEO and president of MTVi.
This web site seems to be aiming to be the YouTube for travellers and it has very well presented itself. Moreover, it is on this site you will find exclusive [tag-tec]travel videos[/tag-tec] made by travelers along with professionally produced programming.
The Google Maps API makes it easy for users to browse videos by location, in a visual way. Users can also search for videos by tags.
The new travel community site featuring user generated videos, media sharing, travel blogging, and social networking, which is slowly growing as far as visitors are concerned since its launch in October last year.
People are passionate about travel, but it still seems like a leap. To grow, Travelistic may be faced with the costly alternative of buying traffic through search engine marketing and other online media.
The web site’s lay out is well designed and the videos load up fast with very high quality, and their video player is simple. So till it gets the job done, I would recommend this website for you to explore and enjoy your time.
Travelistic was built in Ruby on Rails, with a bunch of embedded Flash players and a MySQL database.Travelistic is a property of Diversion Media, LLC, a startup company based in New York City.
Moreover, you will get a world map for you to pick the place you want to see videos from. I chose Europe and still exploring it. What will you choose? www.travelistic.com
