iWish

it occurs to me that a new app for the smartphone that monitors mrt train speeds and highlights unexpected slowdowns, would be very much in the way of a public service.

and clearly the app should not obtain its information from official sources, seeing as how these sources have consistently been the reason why people are caught unawares and in the jam, owing to fiendishly delayed decisions for action.

in any case we do not need an official breakdown. i simply need to know when the trains are running behind so that i can take useful action that does not include 19,000 other commuters.

getting to work on time is becoming a lottery these days.
