Parentography: Social networking meets family travel

Launched today: Parentography, a new site where families can share their travel tips and reviews. I've been in touch with one of the founders, Tim Ludwig, for quite some time (he's submitted his share of hacks), and I'm really excited by how the site looks and feels. Very easy to navigate, pleasant place to be. Clearly, Tim and his wife Noelle have put a lot of thought and heart into this service (they've been working on it for over a year).

From Tim's launch announcement:

Parentography is a free, vibrant online community for parents who want honest tools, advice and ideas for family-friendly excursions, whether they plan to travel around town or around the country. It is shifting local conversations that routinely take place in parks, playgroups and on the phone to a national hub for parents and helping to take a lot of the guesswork out of trying new places. Parentography is always up-to-date, presents unfiltered advice and opinions from parents everywhere, and covers the entire United States (we will add international coverage as soon as we are able).

Sign up now and start writing up your reviews and excursions! Parentography is sweetening the deal by awarding $100 to the writers of reviews in multiples of 100 (the 100th, 200th, and 300th reviews, etc.), and $1000 to the writer of the thousandth review. Full contest details can be found on the Parentography blog.

Thanks, Asha! We're having a wonderful time reading about all of the places and activities that families enjoy around the country -- and in our own town!
