+Trippert is new travel community site with a focus on in-depth guides to destinations and thanks to some dead simple navigation and extensive use of tags, is a great way to bone up on wherever you're thinking of going this summer.
+
+Regular readers know I'm a sucker for a good travel site, but these days most travel communities have become little more than blog providers -- Live Journal clones with a travel focus -- and most are sorely lacking when it comes to easily finding the information you want.
+
+Trippert eschews the travel diary approach in favor of providing an easy way to collect and save articles and photos of interest. The site's founders write:
+
+>We don’t expect to offer the traditional travelogue features -- travel diaries, step-by-step maps that retrace a trip, etc.  Instead, we want to provide the best tool for you to add great photos and articles, to discover unexpected places, to save what you like, and to leave inspired to take a trip.
+
+Trippert offers the sort of tag navigation you'd expect -- browsing by country or region -- but it also offers a number of other ways to find an interesting destination by tags. Say you're an architecture aficionado looking to put together a whirlwind tour of the world's most interesting buildings; click on the ["architecture" tag][2] and you'll find a list of articles on significant architectural structures around the world.
+
+Signing up for a Trippert account will get you a user page where you can track and save your favorite articles and the nerds among us will no doubt love the RSS support which extends to per-author feeds so you can receive notifications each time your favorite Trippert user posts a new article.
+
+Trippert isn't really breaking any new ground in the online travel community realm, but it's easy to use and has a wealth of information for a recently launched site -- highly recommended for the those in search of summer travel inspiration.
