plasticbag : Dopplr—the social network for frequent travellers—has launched and I would recommend that if you're a conference goer or business type you sign up immediately... - Lots of lovely people I respect and love worked on it, and it's increasingly taking the seed crystal of exposing collisions between people and extrapolating it in all kinds of fascinating directions.
Rod Begbie : DOPPLR - Dopplr's out of beta, and open for signups. If you ever do any travelling, it's a great way to find "co-incidences" when your friends' trips collide with yours. Gorgeous login screen too! #
