I wish I had known of this blog before. The Librarians' Internet Index gives brief descriptions of new library-related websites. The websites are often about current library or popular events. This week's topics included summer reading programs, george carlin's biography, and fun travel ideas. Links are provided for all the websites along with their descriptions.
I'd never really thought seriously about experimental tourism before now. Lonely Planet has a huge list of interesting ways to travel. This goes beyond keeping up an accent through dinner at a strange restaurant. Couples talk of traveling to the same city separately meaning to find each other. Whether or not they find each other, they have lots to talk about afterward. Traveling from one country to another with a blindfold on the entire time or using the number 12 to completely plan your itinerary are other quirky examples of the travel experiments listed on the site.
Before gas prices got so high, I used to drive out into the country, get lost, and find my way back home to relieve stress. If only I could find someone who didn't think that was odd, maybe I could do more experimental traveling myself!
