Hey I stopped by sudoroom! and the hardware guys were hacking on a tesla.
We have people working at a bike collective too. we are all passionate about trains, I think some sudoroom members have travelled cross country on train as well. And we all know that we love BART and it needs all the help it gets as it reaches epic overcrowding.
I'm going to start a SudoRoom transportation hack group! We can cross fertilize at Noisebridge...
So there it is!
I started the Wiki. I'll have more time over break to help out.
Some thoughts:
- I do not want to this to only be about ride share, although that's important. It'd be cool to have a communal, non-profit alternative to the current car sharing options out there.
- Trains!!!!!
- Cars - although I don't know that much about cars, I have worked for a car company and have owned a car for the past ten years. I still don't know that much about cars! There is no such thing as a car mechanic collective the way there is a bike mechanic collective. Bike collectives often have a "get to know you bike night" and nothing of that kind exists for cars. The only time I've interacted with cars is at car dealerships and at work and at a mechanic. Until recently I've received little or no detailed data about my car, and its health until a start-up had one of its indie mechanics fill out a "Car report card" for me. I'd love to have something similar for us!
Rock on hope you are all enjoying your break!
