I’ve set up a group on Facebook for all of those Travel Rants readers out there, so if your Facebook addict like millions of others, join my group and come and chat with me. I’d like to see more discussion on some of the travel groups on Facebook, so come and rant.

What better way to communicate with other travel consumers than by asking questions on any of the travel groups. There are some great Facebook applications that you can add easily to your profile, so here is a list of my favourites:

Travel groups

STA Travel
Travel Zoo
Holiday Watchdog
Lonely Planet
TravelPod
Travel Addicts

Travel applications

Dopplr – Where’s next

You may find that some companies have blocked access to Facebook, and if they haven’t, please don’t blame me if you get the sack for spending all your time chatting on FB with friends, school and university friends!
