Find Travel Deals on Twitter
Social networking site Twitter is so much more than a source for updates on the #RoyalBaby and a place to post #ItsSoHot wisecracks. If you have the flexibility to travel on impulse, Twitter can help you locate last-minute deals on unsold rooms, cruises, vacation packages and more. Even if you don't have a Twitter account, here's how to peek at Tweets from leading deal providers and travel aggregators. Follow these Twitter feeds, and you'll see a steady stream of offers worth exploring.
| Play the Most Spectacular Public Golf Course on the Planet
Golf Travel Guide Blair Howard says: "Palm Desert, California, is one of those special golf destinations I'm always dreaming about, and of all the great golf courses in the area, my favorite is the Firecliff." If you're a golfer, his photos of this spectacular course will have you California dreaming, too. Best of all, Firecliff is a municipal course: a public course anyone can play.
| Spice Up a Summer Weekend with an Island Escape
The next time you're looking for a weekend getaway, why not head to the islands rather than piling into the car for a drive up to the lake? If you live in the eastern US or Canada, the Caribbean can be a viable (and affordable) weekend destination.
