Share Your Travel Schedule with Dopplr
March 19th, 2008 MobileFreak
Today we highlight a service designed for frequent travelers, which I ran across over at WapReview.
The Dopplr service starts on the desktop, though many features can be utilized from the mobile phone as well. To summarize, you can check out their about page, or read an excerpt from that page below.
Dopplr is an online service for intelligent business travelers.
Dopplr lets you share your future travel plans privately with friends and colleagues. The service then highlights coincidence, for example, telling you that three people you know will be in Paris when you will be there too. You can use Dopplr on your personal computer and mobile phone. It links with online calendars and social networks.
The service has attracted a following among business travelers around the globe. Jimmy Wales of Wikipedia recently named Dopplr his “favorite non-wiki website” in The New York Times Sunday Magazine: “You put in your travel schedule and link to your friends. It allows you to see where everyone is. I love it.”
Any Dopplr users out there want to share their feedback? Let us know how you like it.
