Timestamps in Dipity are not correct
I noticed that when getting information from a feed that the timestamp is not right. On my blog I have a entry for 7:40PM but dipity displays it as 12:40 AM the next day. I think that this is because feeds like wordpress automatically set the time to GMT +0:00 and dipity is reading that as a local time instead of universal. I know I can fix this in the wordpress php source code to not switch back to GMT +0:00 but what about apps like twitter of youtube, ones that I can't change the code. You should use a similar techniques as Google Reader, all of those entries are accurate. In the feed settings have the user select a time zone and set the time accordingly. This may help to prevent branding me as a night hawk.
