Well, its the start of the new year and it seems like we are planning travel like crazy. Here are some of the things we sue for planning:

* “Seattle”:http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/browse/-/17405/ref=br_bx_c_2_2/103-9763570-0061442. Amazon has a nice list of the best selling travel books. Travel is one area where having the book ranking is certainly really useful. BTW, I completely agree that the “Best Places Seattle”:http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1570613184/qid=1078720817/br=1-1/ref=br_lf_b_1//103-9763570-0061442?v=glance&s=books&n=17405 is the best resource even though it is getting a little old now (it was published in 2002 and there are quite a few new restaurants opening).
* “San Francisco”:http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/new-for-you/top-sellers/-/books/17289/books/2/ref=pd_hn_ts_b/103-9763570-0061442. I would not have guessed that the Frommers guide is the best selling. Actually, I like the “Best Places”:http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1570613133/qid=1078721142/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/103-9763570-0061442?v=glance&s=books version, but it doesn’t seem to be rated very highly.
* “Zagats New York”:http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1570065489/qid=1078722409/sr=1-4/ref=sr_1_4/103-9763570-0061442?v=glance&s=books. Where else can you find out what everyone else thinks about restaurants in the Big Apple.
