This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

The next time you encounter a complicated web of route options, remember a site called Rome2Rio.

Rome2Rio shows every last possible travel option in a single streamlined place. It even finds routes Google Maps misses—that’s the main point.

This site is fantastic. As I recall, you can do a whole string of destinations and it finds every possible route. Great for getting around Europe when I was on a tight budget.

My 2 cents: it's is great when travelling but I end up visiting the website of the bus/train company to actually book the ticket, so it's mainly useful if you are somewhere and you don't know the companies offering public transport.

Edit: I'm from Europe and never went outside of it, don't know anything of how good it works in the rest of the world.
