			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I use <a href="http://www.dopplr.com/">Dopplr</a> and <a href="http://tripit.com/">TripIt</a>, to keep track of traveling colleagues, update people on my own travel, and just generally simplify life. (I&#8217;ve blogged about each many times as well: see posts containing <a href="http://www.openparenthesis.org/?s=Dopplr">dopplr</a> or <a href="http://www.openparenthesis.org/?s=TripIt">TripIt</a>). </p>
<p>I&#8217;m getting tired of Dopplr&#8217;s consistent FAIL on a common (for me) use case- a one day trip to NY on Delta. </p>
<p>Whenever I forward such a confirmation here&#8217;s what Dopplr does:</p>
<blockquote><p>Thanks for sending us a message by email.</p>
<p>We automatically created a trip to Atlanta, GA, United States (from Newburyport, MA, United States) between February 10th and February 13th</p>
<p>We won&#8217;t share coincidences from this newly-created trip with your fellow travellers until February 18th. This is to give you a chance to check and correct any problems in interpretation.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;d like to check, go to [link removed]</p>
<p>Yours sincerely,<br />
The Dopplr Team.</p></blockquote>
<p>The problem is, I&#8217;m not going to or from Atlanta &#8211; that&#8217;s where Delta airlines headquarters is, sure, but it&#8217;s a long detour on the Boston->New York route. </p>
<p>I&#8217;m also not travelling Feb 10 to Feb 13, I&#8217;m leaving and returning on the 13th, and the trip was booked on the 10th. </p>
<p>I can (and do) go in and manually fix the trip in Dopplr, but in this type of case TripIt&#8217;s import feature just works. </p>
