  Why it might be a killer  

We live in a fascinating world with hundreds of countries, thousands of different places and even more sights and people to visit and meet. It is hard for travelers to answer the question "where to go" on the next trip. In the end most people travel the same route although it may not meet their individual desires. Guidebooks mostly contain only a limited number of pictures, weblogs are often widespread and unspecific and if you spot photos for a travel destination, you don't know what they show exactly. So travelers have to read through many pages to find out what might interest them – and then do some research to find pictures of these places – just to make sure that the chosen destination really meets the individual taste. TripsByPics reverses this planning process by viewing pictures, evaluating them and finally knowing where to go - out of the marked pictures. Travelers explore the world every day – why not use their pictures to help find out which places interest you? TripsByPics was built by travelers for travelers to provide a free service to fellow globetrotters that want to discover the world by themselves.

  Some questions  

Does their system check if the triplist created is really accurate, for example on the names of countries and cities? How are their rankings defined?
