New iPhone App ‘HooBus’ Looks Like a Winner
Another gem from the e-mail in-box today:
Yaogang Lian wrote with news of an iPhone application he developed called HoosBus that users of local public transportation should find invaluable. It maps UTS and CTS bus routes, shows the nearest stops and lets you know when the next bus is coming.
It even has a “secret feature”:
If you shake your iPhone or iPod Touch, HoosBus will turn itself into a flashing red light. Simply hold it up to the bus so that you can be easily seen in the darkness. Shake again to deactivate.
You can download it free from the iTunes store, or go to the iTunes store and search “hoosbus.”

Very nice app. Thanks for sharing it with us all. Just a little note: Commerce School stop needs to be renamed “Monroe Hall”. Probably just a feed from P&T that needs to be renamed in their database.
