SeeTheGlobe.com - Dynamic Packing Lists and Travel Info

SeeTheGlobe.com is a new travel site that aims to provide a community for travelers to connect and share, as well as to find information like price comparisons, packing lists, and travel product reviews. This easy-to-navigate site is divided into several sections, including: Travel Reviews, Travel Blogs, Find Travel Agent, Packing Checklist, ‘Where in the World is,’ Book & Video, and News & Articles. These useful travel resources are supplemented with a forum where members can pose questions or discuss topics of interest to the community. Members can further share their travel experiences via a personal travel blog. The packing checklists are dynamic and compatible with PDF or email, and there is also a useful price comparison tool. SeeTheGlobe.com also features a RSS news feed that publishes original articles, and recommends the best travel books and videos available. This site aims to keep itself ‘simple and non-invasive,’ but what it lacks in aesthetics, it makes up for in simplicity and depth. As an additional bonus, SeeTheGlobe.com visitors vote to choose which charities the site makes occasional donations to.

 
  In their own words  

"SeeTheGlobe.com is a travel information web site and community. The mission of SeeTheGlobe.com is to provide visitors with useful information about travel destinations and travel products to help facilitate and organize their travel planning… It is very important to us to keep the site design simple and non invasive. Traveling and travel planning should be a relaxing proposition. There are already plenty of sites that greet you with pop ups, extensive use of Flash and user unfriendly layout."

  Why it might be a killer  

This site has a lot of helpful information, like the articles, media recommendations, and trip and product reviews. But the dynamic packing checklist is the feature that could really make SeeTheGlobe.com stand out - you tell the site about the details of your trip (duration, climate, activities, accommodations, etc.), and it generates a detailed, customized packing list for your trip.

  Some questions  

Will this site be competitive amongst the many travel information and community sites out there? Will some readers be bored or turned off by the visual presentation of the site?
