Gogobot and TripAdvisor are among the first companies that launch apps especially designed for Facebook Timeline. Timeline is Facebook's new profile page, where users can tell their life story through photos, friendships and personal milestones like traveling to new places.
The new Gogobot app lets friends turn to one another for travel advice and share trip plans, photos, recommendations and personal travel guides straight to their Facebook Timeline.
"Our travels serve as bookmarks in our lives that evoke memories and feelings of friends, family and experiences. The places we go and the things we see say a lot about who we are as individuals. By integrating with Facebook's Timeline, Gogobot makes it possible to integrate the stories of your travels into the greater context of your life," said Travis Katz, CEO of Gogobot. "Gogobot is proud to be one of the first travel companies featured in Facebook's launch: this highlights how travel has become a core social behavior and how Gogobot is leading the category."
All the features that people love about Gogobot are now a part of Timeline, making it even easier than ever for Gogobot members to harness the power of the social graph to create extraordinary travel experiences and memories. Starting today, from your Gogobot profile, you can opt-in to add Gogobot to your Timeline on Facebook, allowing you to share and feature all of your travel activity, including:
- An interactive map of all of the places you've visited
- Upcoming trip plans and questions
- Your favorite destinations
- Your Travel Expertise score and badges
- Customized postcards taken with Gogobot's iPhone application
- Links to your Gogobot reviews
- Places you want to visit
