7 Pro Tips to Make Travel More Efficient (via @Mashable) misses @AirBnB for finding a place to stay

The 7 Pro Tips to Make Travel More Efficient posting on Mashable has a really interesting set of tips.

AirBnB is often cheaper than hotels, and more importantly gets you in touch with locals that can get you to the hotspots for dining, etc.
