Gavin Newsom's Mariah Carey-like Interview Demand
About 24 hours after we posted about how the diesel lines were hidden from NextMuni's view, guess what happened? Muni blinked; someone flipped a switch; and now 32 additional lines have been added to the official site. You're welcome. Don't say we never did nothing for you.
Hopefully this will make up for how we apparently RUINED EVERYONE'S DAY last Tuesday by trying to make fun of some fucking buses. Now let's call it even and move on with our tedious lives.
And if you're still feeling tense, go watch the new Part Three of Brendad Ickson's Welcome to my Home. First thank your breasts, then thank your daddy.

I think this is a milestone for Nextbus! Good work guys!
I'd like to suggest a new topic: Hug a Muni driver. I would like the first article to be about Mattymatt giving a Muni driver a hug, because both obviously need at least one.
Looks like someone else has figured out a few other NextBus tricks:

found when googling 'sf muni'
It's so cool when you swear in your posts. SFist is edgy!
Next step? Get the in-shelter displays at the bus stops working on all lines. For example, the ones on many intersections at Van Ness are simply glorified clocks welcoming me to NextBus.
Still, nice.
not to rain on anyone's parade here but how accurate would you expect this thing to be? i'm trying to audit the n-judah line now since i am on my patio looking down at it.
this site rocks:
http://muniriders.net/spotter/
it's within 30 seconds of the actual location of the n-judah
the original link in the story was more than 10 minutes off so i gave up trying to audit it
Next step is to get the riders to have some manners. I'm talking the shoving and backpack wearing douche-bags riding during commute hours. As well as the loud talkers on their cells. Could we get some help putting the "mute" back into commuters? Thank you.
Oh #7, it's grand when self-centered entitlement clashes with self-centered entitlement.
Next step for NB: getting accurate predictions. The big LCD display at the Powell station listed outbound trains all being a minimum of 10 minutes out. The map more accurately reflected reality (trains were ~2-5 minute out).
Great metaphor, but I think you meant "Bela" Lugosi.
the real challenge is when will Muni allow them to show the Cable Cars again--you know the clumps at each end while no cars are on the route.
Also fun would be the deadheading TC's which refuise to pick up passengers even though the rules prescribe same. Think a 31 heading back from the beach and then down the 22 route to the Potrero barn while you are waiting for a 22 stalled in traffic.
