World travelers: check out the Clipix digital hub (Photos)

World travelers planning a vacation should definitely check out Clipix.com and create a one-stop digital hub to store and share all of their travel plans and ideas.

Clipix, a free online platform and mobile app that launched in mid 2012, is a secure web-service where users can bookmark any websites, photos, videos, and documents in an organized manner, taking the stress out of travel planning and reducing the need for paperwork clutter.

Anything bookmarked or uploaded to a Clipix account can remain private – which is perfect for planning those secret getaways – or it even be shared with others you’re planning to travel with, giving you the ability to collaborate on vacation planning in real-time with friends and family.

The really unique thing about Clipix is that you can set up an unlimited number of private ‘Clipboards’, providing no limitations to how detailed you can organize a trip.

For example, you might have separate clipboards for restaurants and bars, itineraries and bookings, day trips and site seeing ideas, and even receipts, which you can easily scan and upload from a camera or phone. Each item you bookmark or upload includes a custom thumbnail image, so it will take just seconds to locate whatever it is you’re looking for.

While being organized is one thing, every traveler loves a deal – and Clipix is one of the best and easiest platforms for helping you save money. Clipix boasts the patent-pending Price Drop Alert tool, which allows you to name the price you’d like to pay for things like airline tickets and hotel rooms, travel equipment and accessories, and virtually any item that is sold online.

Once a Price Drop Alert is set, Clipix will do all the work for you, notifying you the moment an item is discounted to your preferred price.

Clipix is available for iPhone and Android devices and is can be used in 12 languages, including English, Spanish, French, Chinese, and Japanese.

Clipix is one app this Examiner highly recommends! See more in the video below.
