ok, so I finally got my idea down. I just wanted to see what everyone thought, and if you could put any input into it.
As you know I enjoy information design, and I wanted to incorporate that into my project. Also, I did a lot of traveling last year, and I kind of miss planning out my trips. So, I am going make my own Travel Agency. I am not too sure with the name, but I was maybe thinking Travel Spinn, because the globe spins and my last name is spinner. Other ideas for names would be greatly appreciated.
ok, so a customer would come up and set an appointment up with my travel agency either through my website or through the phone. The customer would tell us what they want and first thing we would do it map out their transportation for them. Then through charts and graphs we would tell them where all there money will be going.
The difference between my agency and others is that we would focus mainly on what you will be doing on your trip rather then just planning the airfare and room (hotels, hostels, etc.)
I was also thinking about making my travel agency for the open crazy traveler. So maybe I will have package deals for the ‘running of the bulls’ in Spain or “climbing mt. everest” in the Himalayas.
What do you think about this?

I think that you should do crazy packages like where you can get women the easiest, travel packages for cities with the best kissers, etc…
That might be right up your alley Jeff Spinner……
I also think your packages should include more than where their money will be going, but should also visually inform them of all the usual “boring” information pertaining to the trip. I.e., exchange rates, short history of the place (if it relates at all to their interests), weather (that could get really fun visually), what transportation is like there, language(s) spoken, etc.
That’s all for now.
