Since I am a member of the Tripadvisor community, let me share with you this important information

With the continued increase of connectivity among today’s global society, TripAdvisor recently asked U.S. travelers to share their thoughts on using social media for travel purposes.

Today , the results of the survey of more than 1,700 U.S. respondents reveals a strong correlation between social media and travel.

Whats the use of reviews, you ask? The internet reviews changes everything it touches, sometimes in significant ways. Travelers ranted/complained about poor service for a generation, but once the internet makes it easy to rank and sort and connect, the service has no choice but to change.Reviews often are looked at more seriously by hotels,resorts and tourism providers since travellers usually looking for vacation destinations now consult the web.
