The best travel guides have one thing in common: they're up to date. That's why WikiTravel has become the most invaluable travel resource on the Web. While message boards like Lonely Planet's Thorn Tree Travel Forum are great for specific questions — such as "Should I spend more than a day at Angkor Wat?" — and community sites like TripAdvisor are useful for seeing other folks' photos and reviews, only WikiTravel keeps a concise, current directory of nearly 20,000 destinations. It's so complete, you'll be tempted to skip the guidebook altogether.
