NuNomad – Faster than CNN!
So – I don’t normally consider myself any sort of hot reporter but I must say I was a bit psyched to open up CNN.com today and find an article on Couchsurfing – a topic I wrote about 2 weeks ago! Of course, they did a better job, gave more information and links to a few more like minded sites. Nevertheless, I’m taking the opportunity to blow my horn. If you want to take a look at their article go to Need a Place to Crash? Try a Stranger’s Couch. They have some interesting examples of people who have done this including a guy who’s been sleeping on couches since 2004. They also mention hospitalityclub.org, globalfreeloaders.com and place2stay.net . These are all free sites devoted to matching friendly couches with friendly sleepers. Only worrisome part is – sounds like several of these sites have a hard time keeping afloat. What will be the fate of NuNomad?
