Wizard of Ads partner Dave Young and I had the distinct pleasure of spending two days this week in Cheyenne, WY, presenting and meeting with folks from Wyoming Travel and Tourism and their hospitality vendors from across the state.
One of the highlights of the governor's conference was getting a sneak preview of Wyoming Travel and Tourism's new website, which will officially launch February 20th. Both Dave and I were blown away by the sophistication of the site, and the commitment to visitor usability. The entire team has created a website that rocks, including options for searching by season, by the kind of traveling a web visitor is interested in, and a "My Trips" section, a drag-and-drop "wish list" like you've never seen. There's also been plenty of planning for social media, with a "Share It" button and plans in the near future for blogs, Twittering, etc.
The team has given me permission to sneak you in for a preview. Give it a look - it launches the tourism industry into the 21st century.
Dave conducted a terrific interview with the team (including the developers at CRG), which you can watch here. You're going want to hire them when you finish - I guarantee it.
