In MF Perry's blog on the natural emergence of markets: A car network that works from a smartphone:
" ... "Request a car by telling Uber where you are. Text us your address, or use our iPhone or Android apps to set your pickup location on a map. Uber will send the nearest driver to pick you up, and text message you an estimated arrival time. Cars usually arrive within 5-10 minutes. Your licensed professional driver will park curbside in a sleek black car. Uber will text you again when the car arrives. Hop in the car, tell the driver your destination and you'll be on your way..... ".
Fairly simple idea. working today in San Francisco and seeking to expand. Is this a cab system? If so, such systems are heavily regulated in many large cities and the pressure is on.
