drive consumers to their website, sunny.org.

•Tweets tagged with this code (also called a "hash tag") are sought out by Twisitor Center staff members who then send back suggestions.
•But the beauty of Twitter is that other users who aren't affiliated with Travel Portland can also chime in with additional tips.
#4 Augmented
RealityThe information about the surrounding real world of the user
becomes interactive and digitally usable
On Thursday, April 29, 2010 The Netherlands Board of Tourism and Conventions launched Holland Layer
in the Layar app for iPhone and Androit.
What is Layar?
Layar is a free Augmented Reality application for iPhone and Android smart phones.
When Layar is activated and you point your phone in any direction, Layar will use your camera feed to display layer specific information via a transparent filter.
For example, if you were to stand in Amsterdam , you could simply hold up your mobile device, point the
Holland-Layer toward it and instantly find interesting nearby attractions and directions
Sparkling Queens day launch, April 2010
Netherlands Tourism linked a one-time Holland layer campaign to the Queen's Birthday in the Netherlands.
Five diamonds were “hidden” in four Dutch cities in the Holland layer. The first five people to use Holland
layer and find the locations will win a Gassan diamond.
#5 Apps
App is short for Application software
39% Of all mobile users have smartphones
As of April 2010
Amsterdam iPhone app by the Netherlands Board of TourismIs was one of the first and is still one of the best destination apps currently available.
Hotels Near Me offers a more generic search system of hotels in your area. Simply enter your location, or let it detect where you are using GPS - and it'll provide a list of all hotels in your vicinity.
Then, complete the entire booking process right inside the app.
The system works by attaching your mobile phone on top of your dash board looking at the road. The application then overlays video captured through the camera with driving instructions. This allows users to literally drive through their phone, watching the road even while they are looking at directions.
Wikitude Drive, the first mobile Augmented Reality (AR) satellite navigation system with global coverage.
Google Goggles is search, using your camera. Point your phone at a product, and Google Goggles will search for it, and provide product links.
Do the same with foreign languages (French, Italian, German and Spanish), and it'll provide an instant translation - all without having to touch your keyboard. This is obvious fantastic for quick translations of signs or anything else you encounter on the road
The secret to seeing of what is coming next is to pay close attention to the
spaces where all rules are being broken.
Thanks for Participating…..see you online!
