I started using the site Dopplr a few months ago when it was in Beta and thought it was just okay. I recently went back to check it out and i’m blown away. It’s a great site. What is Dopplr? Dopplr is a website that…
lets you share your travel plans privately with a group of friends and colleagues whom you have chosen. It then tells you when people you know will be in the same cities. It also reminds you of people who live in the places you’re planning to visit.
In short, it keeps track of your trips and your friends and provides some goodness around that information. What i like about this site is:
- It knows your flickr account and your travel dates so it can grab the photos from those dates for the trip. This is MUCH easier than uploading photos for a trip. Don’t know why Sidestep or others don’t do this
- For each trip, it places a Google Map and any overlaps with other friends
- It’s very simple to use. The site doesn’t try to do to much. It hides alot of little functionality until you need it. The design is very slick.
