The document discusses how travel has changed with new technology. In the past, people would plan trips with travel agents and books, then document their travels through postcards, photo albums and journals shared only at family gatherings. Now, travelers can access information online from sites like Wikitravel and connect with others on social media sites like Facebook, Flickr and YouTube to share photos, videos and experiences with a wider audience in real-time. While new technologies have enhanced documentation and connectivity, traditional mediums of sharing trips through photos and stories are not replaced and can still be enjoyed.
