About Commuter Feed Bookmark
Commuter Feed is a new website designed to let community members of the popular Twitter micro blogging service tell the world what’s in store for their daily travels by utilizing the Twitter API to display traffic and transit updates for a user’s local area.
Commuter Feed was created to serve the needs of daily commuters who wish to learn about traffic and transit delays—not just by mundane freeway reports, but communication directly from fellow commuters about how, why, when, and where.
Commuter Feed’s dependence on the community changes the commuting landscape for an instant, personal account of what to expect on the way to and from home.
Team
The Commuter Feed team is Ron Whitman (Founder & Product Manager), Ben Homnick (Programming) and Josh Pyles (Design).
Company
Commuter Feed is a product of Zenji Web Development LLC, a tiny Los Angeles based web design and development business. You can check out our Twitter here or our Tumblr here.
For those in the know we are currently taking a long hard look at evaluating our options to break Commuter Feed into its own business model, with a product road map that goes far beyond Twitter mashup. If you are interested in hearing more or being involved, feel free to contact us.
Jobs
Commuter Feed is built in the Django framework for Python and also uses a little PHP.
We are always looking for talented freelance programmers, particularly hackers with a love of complicated APIs, Python, XML, app platforms, bleeding-edge technologies and an aptitude for making working space shuttles out of toothpicks. (So not even joking.) If this describes you, please contact us.
