I just got a rather odd e-mail inviting me to a gather in London for Monocle Magazine to discuss smarter travel with travlers from around the world.
Dopplr and Monocle magazine invite you to the first "Where Next?" community event during London Design Week.
It's an informal early evening gathering at Monocle's head office to discuss the coming world of smarter travel, with fellow travellers from around the world.
Tuesday, September 16th at 5.30-7.30pm at Monocle20 Boston Place, MaryleboneLondon NW1 6ER
The odd thing is that this was invite was done in partnership with Dopplr which, according to its own About page, is supposed to let me "...share your future travel plans privately with friends and colleague". The odd thing is that I'm not going to be in London on September 16th, nor have I been there yet this year, nor have I any plans to go there anytime soon.
Is it just me or shouldn't Dopplr have known this and simply not invited me? Seems odd that a service whose claim to fame was connecting people intelligently would leverage itself when sending out invitations to events that are about connecting people intelligently.
I don't know, maybe its just me.
