Part two in a series of features on maximising the use of RSS for travel sites. You may be interested in reading part one on: setting up a feed reader for using RSS feeds and part three on: 10 Essential Tips for Streamlining RSS Feeds.
I used to spend a lot of time trying to keep on top of anything travel related and it’s a mountain of a task at its easiest. The advent of RSS feed readers has cut down this time significantly. Below are 50 travel sites that I read regularly and use their RSS feeds to keep on top of. There’s everything from travel blogs to gadget reviews, but ultimately (and hopefully) they’ll be something of use to you, even if it’s just one or two sites you hadn’t seen before.
If you’re anything like me, you’re not about to manually add 50 feeds to your reader from some blog you’ve never heard of, so I’ve made them available as an 
OPML file. All you need to do is download this and upload it via whichever feed reader you use to automatically add them all. Or, if you’re even lazier than that, I’ve made all the feeds available on my public 
Netvibes Universe, which you could just bookmark and view whenever.
This list isn’t meant to be a definitive resource, please feel free to make suggestions of glaring omissions or simply feeds you use which I (and others) may not have come across before.
