… is launched! I’ve been working with the fine folks at Lonely Planet on the application for a while, and it’s great to see our little baby toddle out the door. If you’re wanting to check it out (and you should be!), here’s the link. Better yet, add it to your Facebook account.

We’ve built lots of ways for you to explore the world of travel, all based on a Google map, including travel videos, destination info, flight prices / booking, hotel / hostel reservations, places to eat, drink, and see, and, finally, new to the facebook app, trips. Click on the trips tab, or on ‘Create a new trip’, and you can create your dream trip, report on a trip you’ve already done, or document a trip in progress. Your trip will be visible to anyone exploring Lonely Planet’s maps on Facebook and elsewhere, and will be especially highlighted for all your Facebook friends. As an added bonus, you can query where all your travel buddies are today, have been, or want to go.

We’ve included all the regular Facebook application goodies, including a box for your profile (where am I now? Where have I been?), updates to news feeds, and a little link either under your profile photo or on the left-hand applications list.

Anyway, that’s enough of my wordy descriptions - go add the application for yourself!
