The more you travel, the tougher it gets to keep track of all your flights, hotels, car rentals, and other reservations. TripIt keeps everything organized under one roof, and without all the hassles of manually entering the details. All you do is forward the confirmation e-mails you receive from various travel sites; TripIt generates a slick, chronologically organized itinerary, complete with weather forecasts, maps of each destination city, driving directions (from, say, the airport to the hotel), and more. You can add notes to the itinerary, share it with friends, check flight status, and even get airplane seating advice from SeatGuru.

The only feature I can’t find is the option to get trip details sent to your phone via SMS, which would really be handy. Even so, this looks like one seriously useful travel tool, especially for those who travel a lot. [via Lifehacker]
