Hi all, Ian has been bugging me to delurk, so I thought I'd post something I put together the other day that should be interesting and/or useful for the Londoners on this list... http://blogs.opml.org/tommorris/2007/02/22#twitterTubeTracker I developed it because I wanted to scratch an itch - to know before I get to the Tube station whether the Circle line is running okay - and because I don't like premium rate text services where you pay like 50p to find out only a couple of bits (in the Shannon sense) of information.
This is very cool; though for the Londoners here, you should also know about http://alerts.tfl.gov.uk/ - an email/text-alert system run by TfL and BBC London. It's very good: and is customiseable for your journey times. Emails - and texts - are all entirely free. Not to say this doesn't live on Twitter, though. -- http://james.cridland.net/
