Hi again,

I've been suffering from a bug with ZapLoc lately, apparently related to unicode characters (e.g. umlauts) in the name of the auto check-in location.

The daemon prints out an error message (see below), and then apparently continues working correctly but in fact doesn't continue to update latitude or do auto check-ins.

Kind of annoying, since I have to restart the daemon after every check-in to such a place.

Any thoughts?

Code:

**************************************************** 
  We are checking in at <name with umlaut>! 
**************************************************** 
08:47:57: Connection is up - Good! 
Checking in to FourSquare, twitter=0, facebook=0
