For this "Best of the Week," I'm looking at Scribd -- that YouTube for documents that may (or may not) become all the rage. You'll start seeing some ISLANDS articles available there, but for now, here's a sampling of some favorite docs.
1. The Thousand Islands Showing Scribd is not just about PDFs, here's a PowerPoint presentation that's almost entirely made up of fun aerial images from the Thousand Islands.
2. Tahiti and Her Islands Some travel brochures are actually loaded with useful info. This is one of them, with maps and places to stay in Tahiti. Can't wait for the day when all that travel info in such brochures is just a couple clicks away.
3. Honolulu by Public Bus The August issue of ISLANDS has an article about the authentic Oahu. It doesn't get more "living as a local" than this. The link is one of many travel guides offered for a small fee, but the free preview has solid info.
4. Hawaii: Sharon and Tom Explore the Big Island Very cool how someone's vacation photo book can be shared with us masses. You can tell these two travelers really enjoyed the Big Island.
5. The Best Islands Close to Home Of course I have to promote some ISLANDS content. As a thanks for reading our blogs, here's a sneak preview for you of the ever-popular Best list that will appear in our August issue, on newsstands June 23. Plan your escape now with the live links from this article.
