TripTouch: providing live city guides

TripTouch is a website for independent travelers who want the best from their trip. Everything at TripTouch is centered around your location and your personalized travel tastes. We'll bring you information, services and a lively community - all in one easy to use site. TripTouch is still in beta stage - so please be patient with us if you see any glitches... we're working hard to make it the best travel site for your trip

What I like:

• The design and interface is clean, friendly and well organized. (nice icons)
• The type or grouping of information seems logical to what I would want if I was traveling.
• Strong foundation for what could be a great travel website
• The information contained within the Travel Information group. Just wish it was extracted onto the main page so I didn't have to click to see it.
  

What can be done better:

• Some information should be much lower on the page. Like the currency converter. This is something that I really wouldn't want so high. IMO the highest things should be where to stay, what to do, and where to eat. Those are the three primary questions that most travelers to a new city ask.
• Information seems incorrect. When I view my city I see local news that is no where near me, events that are not representative to whats going on, and no listing of restaurant.

What I wish it could do:

• Create a voting system where users who visit an area can vote on things like restaurants so a person visiting for the first time knows whats good. This is what I find lacking online right now. I really want to be able to easily find the cool places to see and the great places to eat when I visit a new city. Creating a Digg like interface could allow these places to bubble up to the top and show on a users main travel page.
• Ability to customize the layout of the main page (like iGoogle).
  

Good start and looking forward to the next big release.
