There are a number of similar sites attempting to become the ultimate travelers’ community. Travelersfortravelers stands out by already having a rich database of info and an ease of use that not all other sites have.

Perhaps they could consider contracting local experts to put in their two cents so that the information available will really allow people to get off the beaten track. Often, backpackers miss the best of the places they go to because they rely too heavily on other backpackers for their information and not on local experts.
