A freind of mine and myself had built a page scarper a few years ago to get times on the Jersey (NJT) Transit site and also TRiMet. Then we found them doing this, offering services. It is so much the multiplier of awesome to grab the services vs. page scraping. The later being kind of stupid.<br/><br/>But I digress, we've diverged into many other things but still maintain and interest of how to capitalize and expand the interest of offering information regarding transit. Making it more and more viable for regular persons is up there in the interest list.<br/><br/>If you get to developing anything and want a fellow cohort to churn some quality code out let me know. I'd be glad to help out if I can. Very awesome what TriMet is doing in the tech department.

But I digress, we’ve diverged into many other things but still maintain and interest of how to capitalize and expand the interest of offering information regarding transit. Making it more and more viable for regular persons is up there in the interest list.
