The Travel Apps and Ebooks Explosion

 

A New Wave in Travel Apps and Ebooks

During my recent travels, I’ve observed an explosion of Kindles, iPads and other tablets appearing on plane flights, on pool lounges and airport gates.   Nowadays, it doesn’t matter on what tablet you’re consuming as your travel guide.  Now it’s all about what you’re collecting in your travel ebook library.

Why The Explosion in Travel Apps & Ebooks?

Why the explosion?  You can now transport your entire library of guides into a tablet and carry it with one hand.

On the road, you can download the very chapters of a guide you need.

No more lugging around heavy guidebooks or, in the case of myself, ripping out the necessary chapters in order to save weight.

You are completely mobile, buying an ebook guide as soon as you land to immediately check out where you want to go, what you want to do and where you want to stay.

For travelers, it’s very exciting right now in the world of travel guides.
