[Travelhiker][1] has all the usual trappings of travel networks, blogs, reviews, photos and more, but Travelhiker allows you to integrate your reviews with an AdSense account so you can earn money.
Travelhiker is looking for people to write detailed city guides. Travelhiker calls this "[The Travelhiker Project][2]." Once you've signed up for an account you enter your Google Adsense ID and you'll get half the revenue generated by your page. It's a nice incentive to get people contributing and its always nice to get a little something for your writing. I don't think anyone is going to get rich, but in many places a little bit of money can go a long way.
The interesting thing about Travelhiker's program is there's really no need to be a traveller to take advantage of it. In fact hometown knowledge is usually better since you can offer inside information and cool hidden treasures for out-or-towners looking for things the guidebooks will miss.
Travelhiker has another cool feature that isn't new. There's a whole section of site devoted to helping you plan a trip and find people who might be interested in going with you. Some places can be overwhelming on your own (India comes to mind), and this way you can kind find other people interested in going to the same places you're headed.
Travelhiker is relatively new and doesn't have a huge user base yet, but I expect the site to grow. I should note that the site didn't work very well in Safari, but it was fine in Firefox.
