That trip was booked by a regular travel agent, and the form in which I got the documents was unlikely to be parseable by Tripit, so I just entered it by hand.   I was really impressed by how much Tripit knew about my plane flight.   I wish that it was similarly informed about my hotel.

Actually according to the TripIt blog, they are <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.tripit.com\/2007\/09\/thanks-for-the-.html\">planning<\/a> to do just that.  They are also planning to do restaurants, which means that they might be able to act as a kind of evite\/renkoo for groups of people looking for restaurants to eat at while traveling together.
