WorldFriends Networks launches Trips & Cities feature.

July 29, 2009 - PRLog -- WorldFriends Networks, one of the world’s leading international social networking services, today announced that it has launched Trips & Cities – a new feature that enables users to input and share their journeys, follow friends’ adventures and make new friends with people at past and future travel destinations.

In just 14 days after Trips & Cities was launched, WorldFriends users have already logged over 2,000 different trips, demonstrating how Trips & Cities opens up an exciting new dimension of utility and growth for WorldFriends.

Trips & Cities allows users to input their travel destinations and route onto an interactive map that can then be used to connect with friends, other travelers and locals interested in meeting up or sharing information about a particular site or region. The feature also includes new city pages for every city on the planet, allowing users to connect with local residents and other travelers in the region, solicit advice from previous travelers, and get the latest in local news.

In summary, Trips & Cities is a one-stop online solution for users’ social traveling frustrations. The feature, with its mapping application and city/regional pages, helps users connect with locals and learn about the hippest local spots and hangouts, arrange to meet up with friends and fellow travelers in the area, and when their trip is done, keep track of friends’ travels and immediately begin planning their own next adventure!

“Since WorldFriends’ inception, so many members have written thank you notes to WorldFriends for helping them find great new friends during travels to new places.  With this new Trips feature, we make it easier than ever for both sides to meet. We’re very excited to see 2,000 trips in the first two weeks; this encourages us to keep expanding the travel dimension of WorldFriends,” said Dominic Penaloza, founder and CEO of WorldFriends.
