Find Port Authority Hand Schedules Instantly
written 17 Mar 2008 over dinner
After I created this mobile-optimized version of the Port Authority’s trip finder, Jake from 42harold.org sent me some code and permission to style up his own creation, an extremely simple and easy to use little form that allows you to type in the name of a bus you’re looking to find and it’ll bring up the PDF version of the hand schedule from the Port Authority’s website.
Therefore, I give you the Port Authority Hand Schedule Lookup »
Keep in mind this is for the Allegheny County Port Authority which serves Pittsburgh and surrounding areas and if your particular mobile device can’t handle PDFs, you’re out of luck. But for smartphone and iPhone users, this might be a life saver on some cold and rainy holiday when you’re wondering when your next bus will be kind enough to stop by.

I use Last.fm's Mac Menu Bar Scrobbler, which builds an RSS feed out of whatever I'm playing in iTunes. If you think it's as nifty as I do, check out Last.fm and if we seem to have similar taste, feel free to make me your friend. :)

Here's what I've done lately: (?)
I use Twitter to help me keep track of the things I do in life that I find enjoyable. For example, if I go for a bike ride or take a walk with my family, I just make a quick note. That way, if I'm ever feeling like life's lacking, I can just get a little reminder.
