New travel portal opened: trogger.de
Well — it’s finally happened. My new travel portal is almost as good as I’m going to get it by fiddling around with it by myself. In the hope of getting feedback for improving the application, and of course also in the hope of having built something that people will actually want to use, I’ve installed and started the site: www.trogger.de!
What is trogger? It’s a German-language community portal for all things to do with travel. Going on a trip? Keep a travel blog on trogger.de and stay in touch with your friends. Been on a trip? Post a trip report and insider tips on trogger.de, along with your photo albums. Read a good travel book lately? Write a book review on trogger.de and tell everybody about it. Planning a trip? Then come to trogger.de, read the info and tips available here and discuss with other travellers.
Of course, trogger.de is sprinkled with a selection of “Web2.0ish” goodness — blogs, tags, interactivity, RSS. More and exciting features are planned for the future and will be prioritised and implemented depending on visitor feedback.

it looks really good (for a non german speaker)
I was wondering if those icons you are using on your site are FOSS?

Ian - they’re LGPL, from the “Nuvola ” icon collection, as I also credit in the imprint:

Do you see a problem with this, or was this a general question?

no problem that I can see..
I just wanted to use them on stuff I was developing.
(and i’ve never seen a ‘imprint’ page before)

Imprint (”Impressum”) pages are a must-have in German Web sites — at least in ones run by companies. Even the minimal required content for an imprint page is regulated.
German lawyers in the past went pretty much overboard, sending C&D letters (together with the usual bill for lawyers’ fees) to companies who didn’t comply with this requirement.
