May 2007 Web Reservations International (WRI) turned boo.com into a travel site with reviews and listings. When the new site launched, it already had more than one million user reviews which had been collected from existing WRI travel sites. In October 2010, the new boo.com site announced that it was closing down with effect from 1 November 2010. boo.com redirects to hostelworld.com.
