Big Tomato Tour on Dopplr

Big TomatoWe continue to be surprised, in good ways, by the creative ways people use Dopplr. So here’s a quick shout out to the Oregon (U.S.) State Fair, which puts a “Big Tomato” on the road each year around the state to drum up interest in the fair. This year the organizers used Dopplr to show the itinerary.
