VACAYGENT
Vacaygent was the first social travel start up in the highly competitive space that had real revenue from the very first day it launched. A website that offered users a Pinterest style curation of their friends' travels and vacations first, and then a curation of the entire community's travels and vacations second, Vacaygent brought the Social Graph idea to it's users before Facebook rolled out their now highly useful product. Users could ask "Which of my friends have traveled to Miami?" - and ... they'd quickly know the answer and see what that friend suggests to do there. If that friend became part of the community, they could then customize their photos by adding additional content and new pictures to Vacaygent. Users could then share and engage with each other based on recommendations for dining, hotels, nightlife, family activities, singles activities, etc... By way of Priceline's Partner Network, users could also book hotel, airfare, and rental car reservations directly from Vacaygent's website at industry best prices.
