Other than the ease of distribution, is this so awfully different from slideshows and the like? There are two kinds of tourists; tourists who go places to see places, and tourists who go places to be seen in places. The only difference in my mind today versus "back then" is that the rise of social media sites has made it much easier to be seen in places, and so has made the second type of traveler more prolific and well known. In the end, it's their vacation, and if sitting around taking photos of everything is their way of relaxing, who is anyone else to judge? As usual these sorts of posts come down to entirely too much interest in what everybody else is doing, mind your own business.
