Description:	YowTRIP is a social platform for world travelers. Our goal is to connect like-minded people so they can meet and travel together (1) by matching their travel plans with those of other members who are going to be at the same place during the same time as well as residents of that location, and (2) by allowing members to create/join groups to go anywhere. YowTRIP differentiates itself from the other travel sites because it focuses on enabling travel enthusiastic to meet in real life. Our revenue model is based on partnerships that add value to our members, not advertisement. YowTRIP is not a website to review restaurants/hotels, it's not a website to simple share tips/advices, it's not a website for organizing travel plans. YowTRIP is all about helping travelers meeting other people with similar interests coming to their town or whereever they're traveling. You can also create a public profile to share your photos, travelogues, videos, tips, place a widget on your own blog, etc.

Nice concept - seems like a fairly small market and use. Add Comment	sdavinci 07/29/2008		100% 2 votes 2 0% 0
Not sure how many people would be willing to meet up with strangers in foreign lands. 2 comments Add Comment	kenny 06/11/2008		50% 2 votes 1 50% 1
You'd be surprised. You can use YowTRIP for meeting people for weekend getaways, if your friends aren't interested in going where you want. There is a huge number of people who are intimidated to meet other people to travel with or traveling by themselves, so they end up not traveling... YowTRIP wants to change that picture.	coimbfs	06/26/2008
I travel globally lots - backpacker style. I tend to travel along so I love to meet other travelers.	blogger	06/26/2008
