Layover.com has expanded its network of trucker-specific tools by giving those in the trucking industry their own personal space on the internet at www.myLayover.com.

MyLayover offers the latest internet-based social networking tools and puts them at the fingertips of the driver. The new site's tagline, "Where Truckers Connect," describes its attempt to cut through the clutter found on today's popular social-networking websites and allows a trucking-specific destination for drivers nationwide to connect with each other and their communities.
MyLayover collects all the popular tools and features found on the latest social sites such as Flickr, YouTube! Blogger, MySpace, and others, and lays them out in one central location.
"Being able to communicate over long distances, all over the country, with pictures, video, blogs, and other media is the strength of the internet," says Bruce Martin, president of Layover.com. "Of course, long-haul truckers have been doing this forever in one form or another, which makes these social networking tools ideal for the driver. Collecting all of these tools in one place makes it more convenient for the trucker given his or her lifestyle."
Current and new Layover.com users who sign up for an account in myLayover will be able to take advantage of creating their own blog, uploading their pictures from the road, as well as uploading and posting their own videos.
