I'm planning an extensive road trip from southern Spain to Greece this summer and started thinking it would be great if there was a Mac or iPad app that could help with this from an organizing standpoint. Hotels, places to see, etc all stored in one app.
Any one know of any?

Oh to eventually have the free time, investment money, and the right people... Been brainstorming the site/app to end all travel sites/apps for a couple years now. Seriously thinking about looking into how to get a bit further with it this year.

Lonely Planet has some fairly nice guides but popular destinations only it seems. I like the Kayak app for hotels, cars, flights, etc. Neither one does it all, and I'm not aware of any that do.

I like mg33's idea a lot and think it that's a great idea. I wonder though if it wouldn't be beneficial it if was Google Maps/Earth based. Google Maps/Earth is already tagged with photos of places, icons for a few sites to see, some restaurants, etc..I think it would be great to be able to put my finger on a map, look at the street view(s), see icons for good food and nice hotels, gas/petrol stations, trains, make reservations through web links, etc. What a benefit it would be to making travel arrangements, planning details and making reservations. It might also incorporate GPS capabilities so driving coordinates could be exported..
That's a killer idea.
- I don't talk about it much, but I've been working on an idea for a couple years now in my head. It doesn't exist, which is why I keep it quiet...mg33
- why I keep it to myself. But really researching how I can put my foot forward, meet some people, tech incubators, etc.mg33
- My band days are done, and as I get older my focus starts to narrow towards what the next thing in my career is, what I can make the most of.mg33
- make the most of. I just need to find the determination and way to move forward this year.mg33
