TripHub, a site to plan, organize and share gatherings involving travel, introduced some new ways to share trips, including:
- Ski clubs. Club members can set up trips and post the URL to the club Web site or in a newsletter. Existing and potential members can see the details and request an invitation to join the trip.
- Parents can coordinate attendance at tournaments, performances and other events that require travel. Parents can view the trip details, join up and coordinate transportation and other travel needs with other families.
- Event planners can use TripHub to communicate details of a religious organization’s upcoming retreat or pilgrimage. Trip URLs can be shared via newsletters or other outlets.
- College students can recruit attendees to spring break trips by linking their TripHub trip from their MySpace, or by posting it on a flyer in their living space or common area. Participation can be capped.
Said Josh Herst, founder and CEO of TripHub:
“Fall is when we travel to away football games, join fellow parents at our children’s tournaments and start planning holiday, ski and spring break trips with friends.”
The site’s new tools “further empower groups to quickly organize an event or trip, control who can view the details and promote the trip,” he said.
He said TripHub’s major focus was to eliminate two major challenges in planning group travel: sharing trip details and keeping everyone informed.
