The odd thing is, it seems like with so many smart phones around, it
ought to be easier to communicate about people being in a jam and so on.
As I mentioned, when I'm in a jam I write a note and put it on
somebody's windshield, asking him to call me. I'd put up a note on
plugshare in this instance, saying I'd be done in a couple hours. But I
think there are a lot of people who don't think to check there.
Plugshare isn't conducive to instant communication, anyway. It seems
like it ought to be possible to have a texting service, say, so if
somebody's in a jam, all he has to do is let the person at the plug
know. If this guy had been in a jam -- he may possibly have been,
although I think he was just an idiot-- I'd have been happy to let him
have my space. I briefly ran a bbs for my son's school, and I think the
free software had the option of letting people send text messages. I
bet a texting service would catch on. Plugshare's so minimal, I don't
even know who to get in touch w. about that. Anybody know?
