Buskarma

January 22, 2006 · by Natalia · in ,

Speaking of public transit, some folks from MAYA Design have come up with a neat little online application called Buskarma. The makers of the site “wanted to experiment with alternative ways of displaying information that might make it easier for transit riders to find the information that they’re interested in.” Using your IP address, the site displays which stops are closet to your logged in location. The site even displays how many minutes would take you to walk to certain stops and MAPS of their location. (!) When you click on a stop (eg. E. Carson St. AT 22nd), the site automatically collects information from PAT transit to show you which bus lines stop there in real time. It’s pretty cool. Check it out!
