Twigmore

Twigmore is a travel network on Facebook that helps travellers and locals connect through friends.

If you are the kind of person who likes to explore places and people, Twigmore is the place to be. The platform allows you to find and communicate with travellers and locals easily.

Twigmore users can easily see which people their friends know, thereby creating a network of local contacts in cities around the world. The people at Twigmore rightly believe that travel is all about people and they want you to get the most of your travels.

If you have questions like ‘Which is the best eating joint in Chicago?’ or ‘Which is the best market to buy souvenirs from in Budapest’, you can get the information from locals on Twigmore. What can be a better way to explore a place than with a local who knows the city like the hand of his hand? You can explore much more than just the tourist attractions.

Twigmore can be used to get personalized information on places. If you like wildlife, you can easily find out the best reserves in a city. Moreover, you can get notified if other friends are also going to be at the same place you are going to.

In beta testing only, Twigmore has built a database of over 1.7 million local contacts in over 38,000 cities from around the world. For the users of Facebook, Twigmore is a unique and very useful tool in connecting with locals and travels in exchanging information, views and experiences.

Twigmore is based in New York City and is backed by angel investors. It was founded in October, 2009 by media executives Stephen Smyth and Peter Baer.
