Tripmates Becomes ‘TripUp’
This just in from Tripmates – one of our favourite social travel networking sites:
The old Tripmates is now the new TripUp! Your social travel network has a catchy new name, fresh look, and exciting new features. You can now customize your profile by designing your profile styles and embedding html and flash into your Excess Baggage (such as graphics, YouTube videos, and slideshows). Plus, you can post past trips, create a map of all of your travels, and upload travel videos (which we like to call “Trip Flicks”).
TripUp offers more opportunities to link up, meet up, and hook up with locals and travelers from all over the world. Follow the link below to check out your new and improved social travel network:
Sounds pretty cool. We look forward to giving it a try.
