Obama Travel Schedule Mashup by Dopplr

By thomascrampton ⋅ January 15, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

Dopplr, a Web 2.0 travel service that lets you know when friends trips coincide with yours, has done a great data mashup of Obama’s campaign travel schedule.

The intent is to demonstrate the Dopplr service, but it also gives you an idea about the amount of travel on the campaign trail. (92 percent of the way to the moon!)

One of my favorite Dopplr features is where they compare your “personal velocity” to an animal. Obama is six-lined race runner lizard.

Full version on the Dopplr website.
