- What we need is an app that matches up hitchhikers and drivers.
- The idea is: if I'm trying to get someplace, and don't have a car, and
- public transit is a pain; I can see if someone is driving more or less
- from where I am to more or less where I want to go.
- I'd run the app, tell it where I want to go, and how much I'd be
- willing to pay (most of this money would go to the driver). It'd tell
- me which drivers were willing to take me, and would show me details
- about them that would reduce my fear of them kidnapping, robbing,
- whatever me. (The drivers would see similar information about me.)
- I win because I get where I'm going faster than I otherwise would.
- The driver wins because he gets a few extra $. The app people win
- because they get a cut of the $, or an annual subscription, or the
- ability to shove ads at all the participants.
- Last time I checked, there were apps vaguely like this in Europe, but
- I've never seen one in the US.
