Episode 1 - In March 2007, Mathieu from Radaron started the T-List which lists blogs related to Travel / Tourism. 32 comments have been posted on Mathieu’s post (last one is from 20th June). The list was highly acclaimed to be a good initiative. Only one blogger didn’t like the idea.

Episode 2 - July 15th 2007, Jens from Tourism Internet Marketing sets up  a community around the T-list on Facebook. He even created an animated banner to announce the news!
 

Episode 3 - July 17th 2007, Darren from Travel Rants has his rants about the death of the T-list and doesn’t like the idea of creating this community on Facebook (the "bright spark" is Jens by the way)

Episode 4 - Now, Guillaume from well… you know where is about to publish his July Unofficial Technorati Travel / Hospitality Blogs ranking - but he’s too scared of negative comments that could create. Is it useful? Who cares? The idea is to see how Travel / Hotels related blogs are getting popular (or not for some cases) among the Internet audience. It’s also interesting to see that corporate blogs don’t get as much popularity as "amateur" blogs (the exception being Bill Marriott "On The Move" blog).

Episode 5 - Who goes, you chose, you decide in the T-List Big Brother house…

By the way, the T-List is not very well placed on Google. I can’t see it mentioned on the first page of results. The first site is selling customised T-shirts. Should we invest in some PayPerClick campaign? Who wants to participate in the special fund?
