The Internet age has made booking travel easier than ever. There are dozens of websites you can book flights, hotels, and cars on. With all this choice a problem emerged. I book a flight on Travelocity, I rent a car via Priceline.com, and find a good deal on a room at Hotels.com; and armed with three different itineraries and info about sights I build a small book of info to keep track of.
TripIt.com changes that. Email your booking information to TripIt and it builds a customized itinerary with information on weather, directions, pictures of the area, airplane seat advice, events that coincide with your trip, and Wikipedia information about your destination. The site can also send your trip info to family and friends so that they’ll know where you intend to be and what time to pick you up at the airport.
