It is both amazing and an innovation to me. Why would you dispute this? Uber is totally disrupting the way people travel within congested cities. Where I live in Panama, it has been amazingly innovative. Taxis here, while cheap, are dirty, unsafe and unreliable. Uber is remaking how people travel here and elsewhere.
- venomsnake 11y agoI have been using taxis for 20 years now - it usually goes like this - I order the car to come to my departure address and take me to my destination. And then I pay. Just like Uber. Taxi services (which uber is) are a century old. So - no innovation. And if that is the bar to clear for amazing - this is just an simple app backed by insane amount of money. Well having unlimited resources makes solving the chicken and egg problem easy.
- Randgalt 11y agoThat's not what uber is. I open an app - never having to talk to a human. I start a request. I see the driver that will be coming. I see where he is. He see's where I am. No cash ever changes hands. There are reviews on each side of the transaction. Anyone can see how groundbreaking this is. Not to mention you get a very clean, newer car, great service, etc.
