Right now with the data collected from various forums like Flyertalk and other travel bloggers, 45-60 days out is generally accepted sweet spot time.

Megabus is slightly better and is starting to cover some ground.

Is your eventually goal all countries? Visit Iran, Pakistan, Iraq, Mongolia yet? Have you started hitting Africa pretty hard yet? All I have is Egypt and Morocco. :(

I'm at a measly 40 countries but I also have a full-time career/life so I have to travel in 1 month spans twice a year.

Do you like the ADD method of travel (Hit a city for 2-3 days and move on) or are you a purist that tries to stay months out in one place?
