open letter to google maps

in the spirit of the google maps traffic updates, here's a special request for a mrt traffic update:

  • monitor the density and movement of cellphone signals
  • superimpose on a map of the subway system
  • green for cellphone signals moving along lines at usual speed
  • red for unusually slow movements along subway lines
  • circles to show relative accumulation of cellphone signals at subway stations
  • red circles at unusually large accumulations of cellphone signals at subway stations
the objective being so that people can bypass depending on delayed official pronouncements and various angry commuters to update their facebook statuses and still get to their destinations on time.
