Have you ever gone on a trip and then noticed that your community’s time stamps are wacky? That used to happen because your normal time zone preference was being honored, and you’d have to manually re-set it to your “travel” time zone (and then set it back when you got home).

Our last Hoop.la release included a handy dandy timezone checker that will help frequent travelers.

Now, when you start a new session, Hoop.la will check your current browser time zone and compare it with your existing time zone preference. 

If it’s different, you’ll see a message asking if you want to change your time zone. Clicking yes will automatically re-set to your current location’s time zone.  When you get home, Hoop.la will prompt you to re-set again.

This mechanism will also work from Hoop.la’s mobile interface.

One less irritation when you're traveling.

(Sorry, there's nothing we can do about those TSA pat-downs.)
