Deslie Webb, formerly vice president of technology and chief
information officer for Carlson Wagonlit Travel's franchise agency
group, started her own Web travel service company here called
eGulliver.
Webb, chief executive officer of the new company, said eGulliver
will be "in total support of the agency community" by using the
Internet to put consumers in touch with travel specialists.
The firm plans to start a site next year that will enable
consumers to plan trips and then locate the best agency to handle
fulfillment of the order, Webb said.
She hopes to have a prototype to show agents by early next year
and a consumer product on the market by the end of 2000.
