We put a new Web site live recently. It's called commutineer.com and it's a bit of an escape from the drudgery of UK commuting. Commuters can have conversations, share news, rant, be cool, flirt, and stand out in the crowd. They can form tribes around topics, stations, rail lines and networks. And earn vitality points, compete for top spots in the day and the chance to become the top commutineer. While on the move, commuters can do most of this with text messages from their mobile phones (standard mobile rates apply :).
It's got some ways to go and we've got lots more ideas but we wanted to push an early cut live to get some feedback from real users. We've been developing the functionality iteratively so there are some 'cheap' features on the site that we'll be enriching and improving over time.
If you commute in the uk, please join the mutiny and register to become a commutineer.
We'll be handing out freebies around London in the coming weeks and we're also sponsoring Boffoonery, a comedy event to help raise money for Bletchley Park, but we'd really appreciate your help to spread the word. Tweet about it. Put it on your Facebook profile. Please tell your friends about commutineer and ask them to tell their friends too. Many thanks.
