TripAdvisor is becoming such a full-service travel site -- everything but actual bookings so far. By combining GateGuru and SeatGuru, TripAdvisor will have some laudable assets to inform travelers about the airline and airport experience.

GateGuru's challenge will be to figure out how it can continue to offer the features that its user base loves while finding a way to either increase engagement when the user isn't at the airport (like its rivals at TripIt), or make more money from them when they are.

As a travel-focused startup ourselves, this is tough to watch, but heartening in that the company acknowledged its mistakes quickly and is reacting fast.

Car rentals seem a natural fit for GateGuru as its mobile fans work their ways through the airport. Hotels would be a no-brainer, too.
