This is interesting! Can anyone think of a way that we can do some kind of cross-linking with them? It seems to be a complimentary project.

Hey, folks. My name is Evan Prodromou, and I'm one of the two founders of Wikitravel.

http://www.wikitravel.org/ Wikitravel is a project to create a free (copyleft), complete, up-to-date and reliable world wide travel guide. It's a Wiki, like OpenGuides, so everything is edited and created and illustrated and such by users just drifting in off the Internet.

A friend pointed me to the OpenGuides site, and I have to say I like it. I think there's some overlap in what we're covering, but I'm not sure how much. You don't seem as similar as, say, CapitanCook.

Anyways, I wanted to say "hi". I don't know crappo about Oxford or Birmingham, so I don't think I have a lot to contribute, but I just figured I'd send a ping.

Good luck,

~ESP
