“We think the Web 2.0 concept has it right when it advises using the power of the Web to harness collective intelligence for the benefit of all” said Mike Dobson, President of ThereArePlaces. “If you have read James Surowiecki’s book “The Wisdom of Crowds”, you will come to the conclusion that collective intelligence is often more “correct” than expert opinion. Our Places Travel Talk Forums are one attempt to advantage all travelers by sharing the experiences of other travelers.

We have published our content for the ThereArePlaces community and hope that our audience will contribute their travel experiences by posting them in the ThereArePlaces Travel Talk Forums (http://www.placestraveltalk.com/groupee).
