TripAdvisor Acquires Where I’ve Been

2011-07-12 by Phil Butler

TripAdvisor reviews down the tubes

TripAdvisor, the online world’s most popular travel website, has reportedly purchased Where I’ve Been, the once popular Facebook application. The map oriented platform allows users to display where they have visited or lived, and places they would like to visit. Once a “viral” application with something over a million monthly users, the app now sees only a fraction of that number.
