My MVP for a Travel Recommendation Engine

Many years ago (2007?) I put together this site: http://www.tripzard.com . I never launched it, because it was basically a MVP/POC so it's not very refined, but I just found it again today and was surprised it still kind of works decent. The idea was kind of like "Find Your Spot" where you answer a bunch of questions about what you like to do when you travel, and it calculates where the best places for your to travel would be. Most people I found don't realize there are some interesting options out there instead of just going to Cancun. What does the HN community think, is this a project…

What it does

In the maker’s words, at launch

Many years ago (2007?) I put together this site: http://www.tripzard.com . I never launched it, because it was basically a MVP/POC so it's not very refined, but I just found it again today and was surprised it still kind of works decent.

Most people I found don't realize there are some interesting options out there instead of just going to Cancun. What does the HN community think, is this a project worth picking up again? The site is probably buggy etc.. but it does represent a lot of manual data gathering on my part and there still is nothing out there like this site to my knowledge. I've always enjoyed travel, geography and history so this project was definitely a joy to work on.
