Social Transit Research Lab

The Social Transit Research Lab (stArlab) is an open source effort to gather ideas about the socially-connected, socially-conscious transportation of the future. We produce Weeels, the free cab-sharing smartphone app for NYC.

Our blog is where we collect discoveries from the world of new transit, social and not, high tech and low.

Reblogged from somethingchanged

I wonder what Proust would have made of our present-day locus of collective fantasy, the Internet. I’m guessing he would have seized on its wistful aspect, pointing out gently and with wry humor that much of what beguiles us is the act of reaching for what isn’t there.

    More about this fickle Internet later. And this reminded me that I really need to read some Proust.
