Coming out of Europe, Wolpy is a new social network for travellers to share their travel experiences. The basic idea is to create a map of the places you have visited and preview the places mentioned. You can share these places with your friends view their trips. You can view the map in full screen mode. It’s a nice clean design and has simple features, but other than a Google Mashup map there doesn’t seem to be much more to it. However, in a few weeks they plan to “add a whole bunch of new features”. It’s created by Miguel Abad (Developer) of Málaga, Spain and designer Ana Belén Ramón of Zurich, Switzerland. Possibly one to watch.
