Social travel sites like Trourist make planning a trip abroad fun and easy. But there’s more to the concept of planning any excursion abroad using social services, as Tripl so deftly proves. This platform enables users to get in touch with locals that are connected in some way or the other to their actual social circles. The aim of the site is to give people who are visiting a foreign city for the first time a chance to have someone to rely on when they’re there, someone they know they can trust and turn to not only to have fun but if something unexpected happens.
Tripl works using a credit system which means the more people one recommends then the easier it will be for him to get recommendations when the time comes.
Tripl is a free service. It can currently work with one’s Facebook account, and soon users will also be able to make the service connect to their LinkedIn profiles. When that happens, Tripl will effectively be given a whole new lease of life, as in addition to letting users plan getaways the service will begin lending itself to more professional applications.
