GoAbroad.com Launches GoAbroad Network, an Online Community for Travelers

Denver, CO - April 10, 2007 - GoAbroad.com, provider of the most comprehensive international education and alternative travel directories on the internet, today announced the launch of GoAbroad Network, an online travel community where members can share travel journals and photos with families, friends, and a growing network of travelers.

Similar to other online social networks, most of the content in GoAbroad Network is user-generated, but this site was designed to give users more than the usual fare of blogs, travel tips, and the opportunity to meet travelers.

Universities, study abroad offices, travel agents, tour operators or just about any group of travel enthusiasts can become Online Advisors and create special groups where they can post alerts, updates, and photos as well as send email broadcasts to their traveling members. In addition, the group members will be able to access program information and updates, itineraries, application forms and brochures. The idea is to make communication easier and more efficient between an organization and their program participants around the world.

An inquiry or resume created by a user can be accessed by GoAbroad.com's large database of international education and alternative travel program providers who may provide them with opportunities abroad. While logged into the Network, users can browse through GoAbroad.com and bookmark guides and travel programs directly into a scrapbook.

"The GoAbroad Network will allow like-minded travelers to connect and encourage them to share their experiences with more people around the world," said Troy Peden, one of the founders of GoAbroad.com. "There is no site like this and there are many more cool features which will roll out in the coming weeks. We want to see travelers use the tools and features on the Network so that their friends back home can travel with them through their stories and photos."

GoAbroad Network is the only travel community website that has online advisors and integrates social networking with a comprehensive database of travel opportunities. These features, plus image hosting, Google-based dynamic mapping, and AJAX technology, make the GoAbroad Network the ultimate resource and meeting place for travelers.
