We've all heard about the demise of Slow talk (although the web site still hasn't been taken down).
I discovered this morning that Virtual Tourist also ceased operations on 27th February, having been taken over by Trip Advisor.
I didn't use Virtual Tourist very much, but it was there as an independent source of advice. It worries me that the giants are increasingly trying to gain a monoploy of the travel forums. I'm sure this can't be good for the traveller.
Thank goodness for Slow Europe!
