"How do you make cities easier to use?" This question has thousand different answers and could spawn a thousand mini projects. If you've encountered any "bugs" in your everyday life that could use fixing, post them here:

  • How do I not miss the L train more frequently?
  • How can I easily split the $50 cab ride from the airport with someone?
  • How can I find the most interesting thing to do tonight within walking distance?
  • How do I make this Saturday more interesting that last Saturday?
  • How can I find a parking space before it opens up on the street?
  • How can I find what apartments are for rent within my proximity?
  • How can i figure out distance (in average subway ride duration) to movie theaters (or other venues/ apartments / restaurants)? Inspired in the personal world map [1] or the subway time based map of london [2] and this visualization [3].
