About
Travel in the 2020s
Our planet is full of places, populations, stories and cultures to discover. Travelling is now easier and cheaper than ever. Our dear planet is also fragile and evoluting. We are the main cause of climate change. How to roam the world while controling available life time, global budget and individual carbon footprint ? This is why Wotibuc was founded.
Decarbonate tourism
Wotibuc is a trip sharing plateform for worldwide travellers. The trip data base is multimodal, multilingual and spreads all around the globe. Trip durations may be of a few hours to a whole year. We humans excell in sharing informations. That is why we have languages, books and universities. The World Wide Web is the most effective international communication tool we have made so far. The goal of Wotibuc is to reduce the carbon footprint of worldwide tourism. We will have online travel and local trajectories proposals. Each publication is a stone on which the database is built for everyone to access.
Design
Services
Wotibuc is focused on mapping trajectories, timing and costing. It was designed to generate ideas while leaving space to improvisation, the very heart of travelling. Wotibuc provides a carbon footprint calculator. It should be taken into account with full consideration along with time and money. Most transports nowadays still rely on limited fossil ressources. Members publish trips but are limited to strict necessary data. Wotibuc limits the number of pictures users can upload to ensure speed, lightness and limited energy consumption. Wotibuc should be available worldwide with minimal Internet connection.
Privacy above all
Wotibuc was designed as a social media, trying to keep their best while avoiding their flaws. It relies on a community of users who can connect to each others. Sharing should not exclude privacy so the plateform has been designed to ensure maximum anonymity. Profiles are used to enable minimal account management but numbers are used as primary keys. Pseudos are welcomed to keep a minimum human spirit and other infos enable users to frame cultural backgrounds.
