Thanks to Cam Balzer, I’m now on Dopplr, a social network where you can show what trips you’re going on and connect with others. I’m not sure how useful this is as a stand-alone site, but it’s still in beta and I’m just checking it out. It just strikes me as something that could work much better as a Facebook app.
If you want an invite, just post a note in the comments or email me directly.

Show comments Hide commentsHi there. I’m the lead developer on Dopplr. Now you’re on Dopplr, you might like to check out our Facebook app at http://apps.facebook.com/dopplr_wherenext/ – we’ll be formally announcing it next week.
Doesn’t privacy concern you? I am not sure I would want to post to the world when I was going to be out of town, for how long, and where I keep the spare key.
Hi there, would be so kind and sed me an invitation, please ?
Please send me an invite as well. Thanks so much.
Hey – may I have an invite? Thank you!
For those still eyeing the comments here:
A) Privacy doesn’t concern me as you have full control over who views your trips; you only see your friends’ travels.
B) I’m getting more into Dopplr the more I try it. It could actually be really useful when I’m figuring out who to meet with in what city and get a sense of who’s coming to town.
