VibeAgent : exclusive invitations for beta test and special review.
Adam Healey and his great team are about to launch VibeAgent (http://www.vibeagent.com) into private beta.
They are focused to start on helping people find the perfect hotel at the perfect price with a "super" tool I have the chance to see first during more than 1 hour, thanks a exclusive live review with Adam Healey.

Bonjour!
Je fais beaucoup de recherches sur le Web 2.0 et sur tout ce qui touche au tourisme…et ce nouveau concept de VibeAgent a vraiment l’air passionnant! C’est vraiment une bonne idée de tout combiner.
Je serai curieuse et ravie de tester la version Beta…Vous reste-t-il des invitations?
Quoi qu’il en soit merci pour tous les formidables articles que vous publiez sur ce blog!

Hi Claude,
Thanks for your review. This caught my eye because we are a travel content site and are in the middle of incorporating many social networking and UCG features in our new site. It sounds like VibeAgent has stepped back, evaluated the greater potential of a lot of the tools that are already available, and come up with some fresh ideas. I can’t wait to test drive it and see how it works.
Thanks for bringing it to my attention!
