Hi, welcome to Bonvoyagee blog! Although we have been blogging since March 2009, this is the first post in English, so in few words about the project before we get to more recent activities on the site.

What is Bonvoyagee.com and why should you care?

People have always been interested in places. Where to go; where to eat; what to do? So Bonvoyagee is a site where you can find places you’ll like, through personalized recommendations and reviews by others. Personal recommendations happen because of our recommendations engine and the reviews are purely social, made by regular users just like all the content on the site. Anyone can add places, edit descriptions, add pictures, post reviews (comments, opinions) and rate places.

Social means that you can find not only interesting places, but also interesting people, follow their activities and tell them where you are and what you are doing.

Let’s talk about the features

The main purpose of the site is to be able to find and share interesting places. Although you can browse places (and people to some extent) while unregistered, the true power of Bonvoyagee is unleashed when you register.

Share activities

Add contacts from your Gmail and Twitter profiles, send invitation e-mails to people you know or find your friends already in Bonvoyagee.

Now you can follow their whereabouts and activities, and share your own activities with them. Use our mobile version to inform your friends of interesting places or happenings in real time. Upload pictures of events as they happen directly from your phone.

Find places

A lot of interesting places you will find through your contacts, but using our recommendation is useful too. Add places you know, rate them and leave a comment, or simply look for places using our search options. Our main search will look for places by name and description, and the secondary search can help you in finding place in a particular region on the map.

In the following weeks I will introduce you to all the features of Bonvoyagee and share our plans for the future. Feel free to comment, ask questions and suggest new features.

We want Bonvoyagee to satisfy your need for easier and more personal, face-to-face communication with people you care about and are interested in. Let’s take our relationships back to the Meet Space in a new quality!
