What better way to share your experiences with the world than with photos and a review–I have always loved reading about places before I travel. With the ability to share this type of knowledge down to a local level beyond the tourist and restaurant guides is simply amazing because I can see photos of the place to know in advance if it is something I want to do. You can learn more about an area than just its food and trendy spots because often people take photos of experiences that may be outside my comfort zone. Or in many cases, you’ll see postings of an area that is less known that over time becomes a favorite just because somebody wrote about their experience making it something another person wishes to do. For example, the photo below is of a canal along the greenbelt in Scottsdale. Locals that live in this area frequent it often but now travelers coming here for spring training may choose to rent a bike and cruise it at sunrise or sunset. If I can share my experience as an invitation for others, then it brings a feeling of accomplishment or satisfaction that I made a difference. All of this has come about with Google Maps and its ability to share cool experiences.
