Intown2.com Launches website to Connect Friends who Travel
Intown2 expects to become an indispensable tool for frequent travellers by linking them with friends who also travel.
Intown2 (www.intown2.com) is an innovative web based members club for travellers that provides a way of automatically telling them when their travel schedule puts them in the same city on the same date as a friend. No more eating alone in hotel coffee shops when one could be out sharing a drink or a meal with a friend.
With a simple city-dates entry format Intown2 makes it easy for travellers
to share their travel schedule securely and selectively with family and friends, thus increasing the chances of being able to meet-up somewhere or just to let them know where one is.
What differentiates Intown2 from other so called ‘social networking’ sites is that matching only takes place with those on the member’s ‘Friends List’ or if they choose, with friends-of-friends, as well as features such as ‘Home-Town matching’, ‘Do-Not-Disturb’, and automatic notifications of matches by site message, email or SMS/text message as preferred.
Members have unprecedented privacy control options. What it is not is another “networking tool” for the prospect-hungry sales executive or a pick-up site for the predatory. Intown2 is designed for those who already have a network of friends, family and business acquaintances and appreciate the importance of having a life while on the road.
Intown2 also provides essential information and ‘Members’ Reviews’ for destinations including where to find the best restaurants, bars, clubs, good hotels and more. With the gregarious in mind ‘The Events List’ provides the means to meet up and party with friends that one may have lost touch with against a backdrop of major sporting events such as football, rugby, Formula 1 Motor Racing, cricket, sailing, Mardi Gras etc.
Intown2 has been created by three global nomads. Co-founder Hugh McGarry
explains, “We too often found ourselves stuck in hotel rooms or a corner
of the coffee shop while travelling on business and were frustrated by the
number of times we discovered, always after the event of course, that friends had been there at the same time. Manually exchanging travel plans with friends didn’t work because of last minute changes and frankly, being just too busy.
So in January last year, in a rooftop bar in Bangkok, Intown2 was born.”
