    SAP Concur: Why We're Thankful for Travel Technology

    A SAP Concur blog post reviews the evolution of travel technology: travelers once couldn't book trips themselves and had to use travel agencies; everything was paper-based, requiring airport ticket pickup; getting to the airport was expensive; hotel stays relied on word of mouth and phone reservations; and travelers had to lug around many devices.

Now travelers can book entire trips from anywhere via computer or smartphone and track itineraries on TripIt.
