IMO opinion this guy deserves a Nobel prize. This app is the best thing EVER.

So (being a bit more cynical than I should be)... if he works for Google, why isn't this integrated into Google Maps?

Our local transit here in San Diego has been pushing that info to Google since 2007. More details here:

yep. i get it. google has done the same thing in other cities. i have no idea.

also, i don't care. as long as we have an app as good as that one, and it does not require a facebook login, i don't really care who delivers it as long as they keep delivering it.

Indeed. I'd actually prefer an app--if I take the bus, it's the #7, and I just want to see if it's going to be on-time or not from the taco shop down the street.

If I were to be really cynical, I'd ask why this wasn't done by a certain software company headquartered near Seattle :-)
