Joining the TripIt Board

Very happy to write that I joined the Board of Directors of TripIt this month. Simple story — I’ve been using their service when I travel for several months, mentioned it to one of their investors at OATV, met with the company, really liked them and their product, and here we are.

It’s a fun company with a really differentiated product offering that actually helps my life when I travel, so I’m excited to be involved. (Try it out!)

Congratulations! Tripit is a fantastic service -they really raised the bar on ease of adoption (something I hope to emulate). Tripit and Posterous are two excellent models for unobtrusive interaction via email.
