WEBSITE OF THE DAY: Green Travel Hub

RezHub.com, a not-so-popular booking website, has come up with a way to get some attention. They’ve created the first ever integrated travel search website, full of green travel ideas . It’s a great idea for showcasing environmentally friendly hotels and for providing information on how to rent a green car. There’s info on choosing green flights (and how to offset your carbon footprint) and they’ve got green travel blogs and forums. The only problem is, I think they’re just doing it for the evil, other green.

About Me

Name: Johnny Jet

Location: Planet Earth, (okay, it's really L.A., but I'm never home)

I used to be afraid to fly (long story). Moved to California from Connecticut at 21-- that's when I conquered my fear. In college I started dating a bona fide princess from Hong Kong. She was accustomed to flying Biz Class. I had ONLY flown coach -- and I had never been overseas. When she invited me home, I couldn't let the opportunity slip by. I (okay, my dad) bought the seat next to her from a consolidator. I picked the right time to have my first out-of-coach experience. WOW! What a difference-- A nice phat seat, some hot towels, a little sorbet to clean the palate, non-stop food, beverages and movies. When I returned to the U.S. I felt like a new man. I started working as a college recruiter. While traveling my 26-state territory on a tight budget, I learned traveling in style on a budget was possible. I started a weekly newsletter and JohnnyJet.com to share my tips. Three months later USAToday made JohnnyJet.com website of the week and now it's my full time job.
