Travel Blog • Michael Yessis • 04.11.07 | 6:53 AM ET
The same day Slate’s Tim Wu took some shots at Wikitravel—and we had a few things to say about Wu’s story—the user-driven site received a nomination for a 2007 Webby Award in the Travel category. Another user-driven site, TripAdvisor, picked up a nomination, as did booking sites Kayak and Expedia. The Lower East Side Tenement Museum’s Gods of Chinatown site rounded out the top five. Rob Corddry will again host the awards ceremony, which takes place June 5 in New York City.

Thanks for the recognition. We’re all pretty excited about the Webby nomination—it’s a great milestone highlighting the incredible work Wikitravellers have been doing for the last four years.
