Simply Amazed!

Ancient Roman theatre smack in the middle of Amman, Jordan

We are simply AMAZED at the quality and quantity of travel information that our new IHateTaxis.com Travel Daily is serving up every day. 

A photo journey to South Africa's highest mountain range

The amazement comes from the fact that we don't really do all that much! With a paper.li daily, the technology does all the work. As we understand it, guided by some broad topics we select, our tweets are mined, as well as those of who we follow, and follow us and the top relevant content is served up.

Tips for solo travel in Russia

After the daily is ready, we can go in and edit the content, deleting anything that's not suitable (maybe 10%) - and choosing which article in each topic area should be the headline. Super easy - and it's updated live as you do it! (BTW, we connect using Twitter to connect, but believe you can use Facebook, if you prefer).

It's really quite remarkable.

Just take a look at some of what's contained in the Leisure section of today's issue:

• An ancient Roman theatre smack in the middle of the city of Amman, Jordan
• A photo journey to South Africa's highest mountain range
• The Jordaan district of Amsterdam

• How to Watch the Diamond Jubilee Celebrations in the U.S. (and Canada!)
• ... and more

The Jordaan district of Amsterdam

Isn't the variety stunning? The best part is that it's easy to see who sourced and authored each one, so you can follow them on Twitter, or head to the relevant blog/website, to mine more of the content that interests you.So, a publication like this isn't about us 'collecting' news; it's about providing a springboard to you, to find more of the content that you value.
