World Hum
is a very highly regarded and award-winning magazine-style blog which
was created by Jim Benning and Michael Yessis. The pair were obsessed
with travel and decided to create the blog as an outlet for their
passion. Within the blog they had all sorts of various categories;
how-to sections, question-and-answer sections and where the best places
to travel were, as well as how to get there and where to stay once you
arrive. Eventually the Travel Channel decided to make them an offer in
2007 to the tune of $6 Million, which they just couldn’t turn down. I
can’t say I blame them though.
