Great Experience on the Smartway
From
Blue Ridge IT News, a
revelatory experience:
Living in SW Virignia one doesn't think of public transportation as a means of efficient travel between Blacksburg and Roanoke. Well, consider me converted. The new (to me) Smart Way Commuter Bus transportation between my home in Blacksburg to my office in downtown Roanoke is awesome.
The blogger goes on to relate how much more productive he/she was on the 1.5 hours trip on the bus rather than driving alone, particularly with the recent addition of Wi-Fi on all Smartway buses. I appreciate the effort of the converted to proselytize the benefits of public transit.
