A big gaping hole in a lot of mainstream travel sites like Expedia, Hotwired, etc. is that they are long on supplying infrastructure for me to book flights and hotels for my next trip, but very short on ideas for trips and reasons why I’d like to visit a particular destination. Kukunu is a new site that lets you plan trips, and also get recommendations as well as collaborate with any travel partners you have. These kind of one-stop shopping sites are nothing new (look at Amazon for general retail) but it’s surprising that in the area of travel I still have to bounce from site to site as I look for travel ideas, find good deals and email or IM friends with plans or asking for suggestions. The idea is great, and Kukunu’s execution looks pretty good.
