Project

You will be cutting and pasting open source travel content from the [url removed, login to view] website to [url removed, login to view] for 250 top travel destinations.

I estimate this project could take 5-10 minutes per city, or 20-40 hours. If this project goes well, additional and ongoing work may be requested from you to add more cities.

If interested, please post a sample on [url removed, login to view] for 1 city.[][1]

## Deliverables

Choosing the 250 cities:

Use your judgment in choosing the top 250 cities. TravelPost has mainly USA readers, so concentrate on tourist destinations for the USA traveler - primarily North America and Europe, but not limited here. A helpful tool is the top destinations listed on World66 country pages ??" the list is at the bottom.

For each city, you will perform the following steps:

1. find the city on [url removed, login to view]

2. Open another browser window and Login to [url removed, login to view] (a username/pwd will be provided for you.)

3. search for and go to the city page on [url removed, login to view]

4. Click the Add Travel Log link

5. For the Add a Travel Log page, you will insert the following information :

_Date_: Enter today’s date

_Rating_: Select 5

_Title_: Use the title: Overview and Essential Travel Information

_Photos_: Do the following:

(If there is not a Photos category, skip this step)

1. Click the Photos section of World66 and choose up to 5 photos that best represent the city. Only use photos without people in the foreground

2. For the 5 chosen images, right click on them and choose “Save As…?? and save them temporarily to your hard drive.

3. Click the Add Photos link and upload the photos you have selected from your hard drive. You can upload 2 photos at a time.

4. If the photo has a caption, include the caption text on TravelPost. Do not include the “photo by:?? text. If the photo is of a distinct landmark you recognize, add this to the TravelPost caption field (ex a photo of the louvre would get a caption "louvre museum")

_Notes_:

You will cut and paste text from various sections of World66 into the Notes field in the following order and format. For each section, do a quick scan to make sure the text is relevant and cut text that is not relevant (example: cut text that mentions someone’s name). Limit overall text to 8000 characters, otherwise you will get an error when you submit. It may be easier to copy from World66 into MS Word and then into TravelPost.

NOTE: some browsers may have difficulty copying text from the [url removed, login to view] website. Click the edit link near the text and you will get it in an easy-to-copy format.
