Avego, New Car Sharing Service (And iPhone App)
I wonder if there is something that the iPhone can’t do. That small tech wonder is mind blowingly awesome, i simply doubt it.
Meet Avego, a new car sharing service and iPhone app all rolled into one. If you’re looking for a ride or have one to offer, look into Avego. A new service created by techies in Ireland to identify and connect carpooling individuals.
There is an iPhone app available for Avego, but no need to fret if you don’t own one. As the service is reachable via various methods, including web phone and text.
Drivers must have an iPhone in order to use the service, but if passengers don’t, they will be able to look for a ride on the Avego Web site or call or send a text message, Mr. O’Sullivan said. Drivers and riders can identify one another by photographs displayed on their iPhones, as well as by PINs that verify identities and authorize the transaction.
At present cost is divided up between driver and company, with a percentage in tow.
