At a former work place, we were gathering data about where entrances, lifts, passageways were in different transit stations. These videos (or someone on the same kick) helped us get an inside view of many of these stations.

I've also been on the five dollar plan for over a year. Also, never been asked to upgrade.

This is awesome and just what I've been wanting. One request would be to show the repos I contribute to the most instead of just the ones on my account. I went and looked up the open source report card which used to work the same way.

This is great, thanks. How replicable is your process for other cities that have open data? Code for America recently worked with Yelp and several cities to standardize restaurant inspection data so that services like Yelp (and perhaps you)

They make great apps. I don't know if it got implemented, but I heard rumors they were working on some really cutting edge routing tech too.

My trip to Bogotá was 10x better experience because of FourSquare. GMaps was totally wrong, Yelp didn't exist, tourist guides are all cookie cutter. FourSquare had all these amazing recommendations, most of which came from people I follow.

Google Maps huh? Millions of views a day. I wonder how much that is going to cost Facebook. Way more than rolling out their own service, I'm sure. People expect Gmaps though.

OnLive has been amazing to me. I've bought a few games on it and rented a handful. I live in San Francisco, so my internet was fast enough for good graphics. When I bought Borderlands, there were plenty of other people to multiplayer with.

Every time the planning department has tried to increase density along the transportation corridors on the west side of the city, the neighborhood groups come out in force against it. We desperately need light rail and five story mixed-use

The recent release of PostGIS 2, the spatial extension of Postgres, has been a huge benefit to geo software. It has increased the ease and speed at which we can now work with large data sets and do spatial computation on them. My favorite p

Tethr is a really cool convergence of open source software and hardware that will save lives. I'm really impressed by disaster response technology. I hope Tethr works well and is widely deployed. Light weight related, the Open Street Maps r

I have all kinds of questions about how they choose which information is most important about a user's geography, such as showing trains schedules when in the station. Did they take all of their Google Places categories and analyze which a

The effects of 20x fewer vehicles in our cities will have enormous impact on urban design and planning. The very shape of our metropolises will be realigned away from the auto-dominated patterns of the last 60 years. Walkable, livable, gree

Thanks Shykes! I've been building my app on your service and have become hooked. I showed your tour video to my office today and they were all very intrigued. Congratulations on the launch.

The mockup had the lane extending behind and in front of the cyclist. They were building prototypes last I heard, but nothing ever came of it. I want to make one too.
