For example, 511.org will ask you to clarify your results, even if there is only one option. Like you typed "Market and 4th" and they want to make sure you mean "Market St and 4th St". So I just go ahead and accept that for you. So I submit that and scrape/reformat the results. Also I generate my own links to the maps program. Sadly, I lost my iPhone a couple days before I finished the program. :-( Finally ordered a new one yesterday. Yep, with some fanciness.

I could definitely see myself using this. Are you feeding the trip planning queries to 511.org and scraping/reformatting the results? Nice work, Braden! I could definitely see myself using this.

Good use of the TriMet APIs--this is a great example of how everyone benefits when an agency makes it easy for developers to reuse their data. Nice work, Matt!

You can also save your favorite stops so you don't have to hunt your stop down each time. http://www.mattking.org/2008-01/track-trimet-on-your-iphone.html http://trimet.onmyiphone.net I took Trimet’s API and made it into Trimet Tracker, a site designed for the iPhone that makes it easy to find out when the next bus/train/streetcar is going to arrive.
