Tripigy - Live Release

[firefox]

Hi Everyone,
so it's been a while coming, and what better time to release when those people unable to go away for easter can jump online.

We've launched the initial release of Tripigy!  (http://www.tripigy.com)

Please note this is an initial launch, and we probably won't be taking it offline, but there is massive amounts of data missing (currently being approved, but as you can imagine there is over 10,000 POI's and another 25,000) so it's alot of work.

There is lots happening over the coming months, and you will see constant updates and releases.

We're always open to feedback, so please feel free to send any comments to support@tripigy.com.

Cheers
Justin

Hi Mace,
thanks for the kind words. There's so much to do, and we've got guys helping out with content. Pictures are the hardest part, and although we have a DB with over 10,000 POI's in it, they have to be cleaned, sorted, viewed, updated and fixed as well as formatted etc.

It's all about the quality of the data with us, so it's important to get it right. Thats why we are slowly launching the data, the platforms will go live (with a possible few bugs) but we are getting them fixed as we find them..

Cheers
Justin

I've had a look around. It seems good. I will have to pull my finger out to add my pics and places

Looks good, pretty polished for an early release!!

[firefox]

hi jasman,
thanks for that. Well it's been through 3 different UI versions..! Driving me insane. We didn't want to release until such time as we were "happy" with the UI. The database can be released over time, the UI once it's out there it's hard to take back.

Nice clean, intuitive, fast UI

The popular places per region map probably needs a zoom. It's a bit hard to focus on an area in VIC being so small.

I'm not a fan of the mastercard, visa & paypal images bottom right corner. They're not linked, what's their purpose, and look a bit amateur compared to the rest of the imagery.

[firefox]

thanks D4D.. yeah i have asked the guys about changing that map. It's a little tricky, we maybe need to have a 2 stage, i.e select a state and then zoom into the state.

I agree about the logos they serve no purpose, i think they were from an initial build and just carried over..
(i think if you remember the version you saw was very different (i think you saw UI.2)

Yeah 2 stage map would work

I can vaguely remember the version I saw, I was under the influence of uncle Jack

I just had a look at the site , looks good.I registered then searched the group section, but there is no "myswag" group. Why not? I didn't want to push my luck since I'm only learning the ropes    Can we please have a "myswag" group. 
Just looked. I'm a 'sleeping bag user '. When did that happen ?

[Cracka]

Had a look and registered, good job 

[firefox]

Hey guys, thanks for the feedback. Yes the plan is to have a myswag group so we can keep things stored and a link to the main myswag site.

The benefit is there will be calendars etc which you can link up etc.

hi speewa,
so yes ive been enjoying some glasses by the fire tonight. of wine that is...

anyhow tripigy is a project ive been working on for the last 18 months. its purpose is to connect and share people with the great outdoors for free. thats right there is now a place where you can create a profile and plan your trips where you can enjoy your 

although weve only launched an initial desktop version there is so much more to come, the benefit for yourself speewa would be you can plan your trips, at the same time work out what the weather will be when you go so you know if you will get wet

plus much more, you can even write up a review on whether you think its a good drinking place.

you could even start your own connections (friends) and let them know when you are going away or even post to twitter or facebook, so you have more drinking buddies on your trip. or you might start using the trip active tracking feature so you can checkin on your arrival (so that we all know to stay away from that area... only joking speewa we want to know where your camping..)

Password strength may be a killer for some... Upper, lower, numerical & #$%*. Though some on here are quite adept at the latter. 
Clicked on a recent activity and got a Oops..
and when you click on the Mobile app menu item it says you have to be a higher account type and tells you to check your account status. Should point you to Account Type, not Account Status as there is no option under Account Status to change your account type.

Minor glitches I'm sure will be ironed out as you go.
