    Hi guys

    I just have a little request for help today .....

    I am building a world clock - it is launched but in need of lots of development to get it to be what I imagine it could be.

    I have decided on my Car hire and brochure feed for the sites, but am desperatly trying to get a worldwide travel feed (I have 4000 cities to feed :+)) and worldwide phone service. Do you know anyone (and they can not just be Europe) please?


    Can anyone else give me any ideas of things I can do with a world clock? as well as the ones I already have?

    Ta very mucho

    I am gonna get laughed at for this, but what does a world clock have to do with a travel feed and other products ???

    Or if it is totally obvious, ignore me cos I have just got back from the beach!

    But probably the most comprehensive travel feed is at TravelNow - www.ian.com

    ok - lets say you are looking to travel overseas - but you want to call your aunty in US, Florida for chat to make sure she can have you - lol - you need to know the time over there before you call

    then you call - oh yeah - and you want to book flight

    ahh ... so you check time

    THEN call - hence phone thing
    THEN book tavel - hence travel thing

    what else????

    That is where I am going with it.

    WHY would you be looking for the time in differnt country??

    Ahh Gotcha!

    Well the obvious ones I use on my travel sites are:

    - Car Hire.
    - Travel Insurance.
    - Show Tickets / Them Park Ride Tickets.
    - Luggage.
    - Local destination guides which cover the - local decent places to visit.
    - Digital Cameras is also one most forget.

    Never bothered with the Holiday Watchdog stuff as it is too much of a leak when all you get is the price of a click away from your site when you could get a sale.

    I LOVE YOU ALL

    Ta very much - now tis for the merchants to bother me to death - BRING IT ON!!!

    Any of the above - except car hire I committed to Doug

    I specifically think

    Weather
    Language
    Currency
    Maps
    Hotels
    Luggage
    Travel Insurance
    Phone – cheap calls overseas

    I need feeds really or very good site to link to that easy to use - and have got 4000 cities to feed - can you do it? Do you cover the world (not just europe)

    I had a look around - but there are sooo many networks - and some of them is hard to tell about feeds etc.

    For cheap phone calls why not consider phone cards. I'm pretty sure 1st4Phonecards will be able to provide you with a landing page branded to your site design and phone cards are very popular for overseas calling.
