Wayfaring truly is a great site and I have used it pretty extensively in teaching-related work. But I've gotten nervous about its future. The user forums have vanished recently, and the creators don't respond to emails. Wayfaring's creators all work for CNet now, I think, and they were all involved with the Chowhound project, so I think this site has kind of slipped to a low-priority status. I wish they provided a way to get my data out of the site just in case it goes down, but I can't figure out how to do it.
