Zimride Goes Mobile
In the fall when phones hit the shelves running Google’s Android mobile operating system – Zimride will be there. We have partnered with Ecorio an environmentally focused development team to bring Zimride onto your phone. The Ecorio mobile application takes advantage of Android’s location aware GPS to help people share rides on the go. It also tracks your travel related CO2 emissions and suggests public transit alternatives.
We want to congratulate Ecorio on receiving the top $275,000 prize in the Google Developer Challenge. It has been a pleasure working with them. They are going to do some incredible things with this application.
Ecorio is using Zimride’s private partner API. This means that all Ecorio users will be able to tap into the existing Zimride community of over 300,000 members. Contact us if you are interested in more information about our API.
