Tourism Board Travel: Philly's Making It Easy

February 27, 2008 at 1:54 PM | by pbb | 4 Comments

As much as we love comparing guidebooks, scoping maps and planning sightseeing routes, sometimes we just wanna go on a vacation. The tourism folks in Philadelphia must know our pain 'cause they've put together an easy-to-use weekend planner called the "What to Do Thingmabob."

It's basically a personality profile that matches you to stuff to do. Example question and answers:

The Big Lebowski is...

· I can't remember if I've seen it.
· I haven't seen it.
· Flippin' dude-tastic in every sense of the flippin' word.

Guys will probably feel like they're taking a quiz in the back of Cosmo, but it's just seven quick questions. Once you're done, your custom-fitted itinerary pops up, ready for printing out or bookmarking in your browser. It even comes complete with a Google Maps mashup to help you plot your course.

    RE: Philly quiz

    Fun!  I took the quiz and was called a hipster, not sure how to feel about that, but I do love dive bars, so I'm happy.  Though I'm sorry they didn't include the Mutter Museum or the old prison on my itinerary, two of my favorite Philly sights.

    Seemed like a pretty badass itinerary they suggested.  Now I just need to actually plan a trip to Philadelphia.

    Everyone loves those Cosmo quizzes! Particularly the guys I know who think it's hilarious to find out what kind of girl they are.
