When TripAdvisor was launched in 2000, the Internet was scant with information on travel hotspots like hotels, restaurants and attractions. Countless review sites have sprung up since then, produced both by media powerhouses and web users. Now, of course, social media influencers are also part of the review ecosystem. This has prompted TripAdvisor to refresh its look, with features that aggregate all the new sources of information and inspiration. Meet the news feed. Once members log in to their homepage, the site or mobile app displays a personalised news feed, like Facebook. And when members search for a destination, the feed displays information that’s relevant to that locale.
