Where I've Been re-design

Woo hoo!

After a nice, long winter hibernation, Where I've Been sprung to life and launched it's new travel platform early Monday morning for all to explore and discover. Whether you are planning a trip to Berlin, Germany or searching for the nearest Greek restaurant in your hometown, Where I've Been now allows members to search for anything and everything - globally and locally.

But that's not all, folks...


Members can also write, rate, and publish reviews from the home site (www.whereivebeen.com) to their Facebook profiles using Facebook Connect for everyone to read and admire! In fact, reviews are not the thing that can be shared through Facebook. Images, videos, comments, questions, and Trivia of the Day can also be shared to Facebook.



Think you are a know-it-all when it comes to your hometown? Then flaunt your knowledge by becoming an expert. All you have to do is upload videos, add images, write reviews, or post comments on the Where I've Been application to become the 'go-to' person in your city.


Where I've Been is all about giving back to the community which is why we have created Travel Bucks. With Travel Bucks, users can feed a child in Mali, save the rain forest, and other philanthropic acts! To get Travel Bucks, all users have to do is merely interact with the site. Post videos of your trip to Mexico, add images of your family in South Africa. Post a comment or two about Chicago nightlife. The more actions you perform on the site, the more Travel Bucks you earn!

Tripso has written up a fantastic article highlighting Where I've Been's key features. Please view the article "Popular Facebook travel application gets a facelift" for more information on us.

We really hope you enjoy our new layout and design! If you have a minute or two, please let us know what you think on our forum.

Cheers!
