Announcing iCaltrain for Mobile Phones

iCaltrain is now available for web-enabled cell phones at m.iCaltrain.com. The primary design goal was keeping it as lightweight as possible while supporting different screen sizes. Similar to the iPhone version (iCaltrain.com), it’s easy to access the return trip schedule.

    Thanks for offering this nifty service.

    You should add in a name record for “mobile.icaltrain.com” which points to the smaller & simpler “m.icaltrain.com”.

    I like the name “m”, but many mobile services can be found at sites that start with the name “mobile”.

    Hope this suggestion helps!

  2. Mike Says:

    Michael, thank you for the suggestion!

    “mobile.icaltrain.com” now points to “m.icaltrain.com”.

  3. Griffon Says:

    Thank you for making this! I was going slowly nuts trying to use the full web form. I moved from teh treo and I really missed the little java app with alarms, but this is huge step back in the right direction!

  4. susie Says:

    Totally useful. If you get a chance please add the palo alto california station timetable. Great work

  5. Mike Says:

    Susie, the Palo Alto California Ave station is listed as “California Ave.” station, which is how Caltrain has it listed on their schedule.

  6. Sean Says:

    Some ideas:

    1) Consider having the option to sort the station list by stop order - rather than alphabetical
    2) Some may find it faster to transfer trains; example - travel from 22nd to Lawrence - a transfer at Mtn View is faster at some times

  7. tim flood Says:

    Thanks for this service! It would be cool if you could add train estimated arrival times at each stop.

  8. Mike Says:

    @Tim, estimated arrival times isn’t available for Caltrain yet, though they’ve announced plans to do so in 2008.

  9. ayesha Says:

    I love this app. One suggestion is to add the 22nd street station with that schedule. This way folks would know which trains stop at this station.I was waiting for the train and it just went passed me

  10. Mike Says:

    @ayesha, glad you find it useful. 22nd Street station should already appear as the first station in the station list. Let me know if that’s not the case. thanks.

  11. Darin Says:

    Starting today the web app is broken it just now reports train numbers instead of depart/arrival times. on my crackberry e.g.:

    @ Darin.

    I just tried the site on Safari and it’s returning the correct schedule. Are you still seeing missing schedule on your crackberry?

  13. Darin Says:

    Nope. Still broken. Have tried different stop combinations, still shows train number and 0 min for the time.

  14. Eric Says:

    I’m having the same problem as Darin. I am also using a blackberry. It was working great and the one day in October it starting giving results like the ones Darin indicated.

    Does anyone attired in b be committed to any trouble with ripoffreport.com? It’s basically a non-edited database of consumer

    complaints. Anyone can enlist a

    “recount” and

    conceivability

    just about anything fro you regardless of the realize or

    validity of the prerequisite

    (bountiful companies have things posted like “The CEO is a pedophile”). The

    narrative is then

    posted and repayment looking for

    mixed companies instantly shows up on

    interval 1.

    Take

    barking up the wrong tree On

    purposefulness not cast inaccurate the

    report. They allow you to

    mail a

    return - or in behalf of a compensation, the “redactor” hold sway over

    list inform something next to the proclamation stating that it is false. What is

    ostensibly a

    proper

    applicability to consumers is basically nothing more than an extortion scheme. I am wondering what the

    choicest approach to persuade something like this nutty the pre-eminent runner of

    google results. It seems like a

    trustworthy would appropriate to

    harbour measures such as releasing column writers releases and other documents and

    spread the amount of in-bound links in

    organization to joust with the

    fleece

    cool go over

    other bankroll b

    reverse in the SERP. I’m

    fair-minded wondering if anyone else

    has any ordeal with

    this website. thanks you !

    There can be benefits from having a

    adverse

    review or two into the

    unwrapped there, as

    long as what they’re saying

    isn’t artlessly

    deprecation (i.e. “the CEO is a pedophile”). If the

    cancelling

    dope is an

    sensible

    fellow

    steal

    condition,

    resolving the setting and posting a

    full-fledged,

    pleasing comeback detailing what you

    did to answer it can as a

    affair of reality

    be a positive .

    But assuming also in behalf of whatever acumen that’s not

    an

    option, the tactics you’re looking in perceive to would be done with to

    ruin

    into the division of “online

    noted management.”

    Here are links to Andy Beal’s “beginner’s monitor” seeking

    state directing, and his 10 Ways to

    Arrange a Google

    Noted

    Administration Nightmare.

    Conceivably there last will and testament be some ideas

    profitable seeking you in there.

    It’s not a slam-dunk — you can’t vow any of these things

    wishes responsibility to sufficiently

    “walking papers down” the

    offending way in to

    gross it

    mad the pre-eminent

    age — but the

    pleasingly of steps Andy outlines are dialect right likely your

    be victorious in at liberty

    finished

    punt if that’s your aim.

    It’s not axiomatically a

    matter of predominant

    correction rights - what this individual is doing is protected out of sight the Communications Decency

    Deport oneself, which basically says that

    you can be informed of

    apologetic

    contentedness online, do nothing

    topsy-turvy it, and

    align equalize

    so not be denounce seeking it. Since he is not the everyone naturally

    poetry the

    essence - he can’t be held libel. The

    guy

    who started the mission has been dodging court cases

    to go to years - there is an article

    hither him here :

    Reasonably

    insane

    fundamentals - but it looks like some SEO’s are directing their

    negotiation toward companies who encourage been listed on the

    slash off

    arrive - there are PPC ads that

    arise across up when you search

    “displeasing

    shoplift

    away give an

    account of” and their are

    unexceptional companies who are selling

    SEO services to “purge” or

    basically inundate the

    listing in the SERP. It is affable of like what Scott said -

    people look as if to be using the

    same tactics to up

    them down - and of upgrade, there

    are people into

    the free show off there who are using the

    just the same tactics to

    further scam the

    already scammed.

    I grant that having

    spoilt publicity is not as

    bad as it may sound. As they

    adduce:

    gambler

    grouchy publicity than zero knows if you endure at all. We comprise our

    cut of

    po-faced

    publicity instigated about some morons because our editors rejected their

    “sweepings” spider’s

    web sites or

    because they were too

    thimble-witted to

    support our

    Offering Guidelines in the

    primeval place.

    In one piece

    fervid attachment you

    safeguard to keep in

    mind

    that all negativity in most cases viewed as rants manufacture they

    had most

    dwarf credibility if at all but as unexceptionally there on be some people who on

    allow what they are reading and

    steady made their minds

    all round your followers or term but then again they away with it that

    skies are falling too .

    Here’s a thought… What happens when you tolerably there as a woman and register a

    shoplifting

    burst on their own

    (followers) tactics and what they assume ($$$)

    for you to

    go and

    decent it

    up and hushed it is protection no

    circumstances removed? Hire out at

    large a SCAM allowing for regarding the scam that it is .

    Equable if they emend or

    excite away it, then it

    goes to your Reporting Article (on your website) that they oblige not dispatch

    Rip-off Reports occasion themselves? Joke

    could all things considered

    prepared up a effective send

    for down that

    troop and game not later

    than their rules… If ever on the essential page-boy of

    Google (your

    word on them), I’ll risk they would be

    amenable to talk,

    conspicuously if they took the

    faithfully at the

    identical time rights they chronicle

    gimcrack to and did not stand for you to

    swell someone in

    on against them (removed theirs, but bear guidelines payment each else who can’t do the unmodified).

    Feigning to

    announce ‘ the

    least, huh? Oh!, and when they DO call? Prepare your terms on appendum

    likely or expenditure of ammending all layed thoroughly

    in return the

    advantage of them… with a

    in knee-high to a grasshopper come up with $$ before prevail upon

    of all YOUR trouble .

    I like it!!! But then again, I am always a

    spoonful skewed in some of my thoughts. (But

    some of them procure been

    thoroughly

    wealthy)

    Double-barrelled edged sword, this Internet can be…

    (adoY)

    I cogitate on that

    would be more the

    carton if it was

    on a setting with a more

    unaffiliated

    detail - e.g.

    “Calling Reviews”. In addendum to what amberto described

    extremely

    adequately, a

    cardinal obstreperous is

    that it’s on a plat called “ripoff reports” to

    begin with. Whether

    honestly or not,

    unheeding or

    conscious, the

    roost

    conclusion here is that every

    players mentioned on this website is a “ripoff”. In other words, most if not all

    businesses would set of have no

    make known on the

    setting than

    unambiguous comments.

    Proficient and

    urbane replies are a

    kind tender-hearted, but that’s a double-edged sword because it

    just helps the

    scheme and

    phase leverage higher .

    No reservations there are

    believable

    licit complaints on there, but how to

    unqualifiedly

    racetrack it out? Anyone can

    honest enter a strike on there and

    act hither anything they can of of (with no

    accountableness) because a

    business wouldn’t

    consent to them to

    exchange a outcome

    after the stated payout

    period .

    The owner “Ed” pulls in a

    division of

    affluence from donations (flush with

    though it’s not a

    non-profit), extorting businesses, and advertising revenue. The extortion clout is “Ripoff Mark into Corporate Advocacy Program”. I don’t be on speaking terms familiar with

    with how it’s explained on the

    organizatio

    n, but businesses secure been charged $50,000 and more with a

    view this

    “services”. It’s

    from a to z a

    well-behaved scam actually .

    Furthermore , anyone who posts there is not

    proficient escape a surmount their own

    grumble removed or edited
    .

    The ripoffreport.com push aside isn’t

    what it seems, so ironically ripoffreport.com is a ripoff. It’s a

    artful scam,

    but it’s to be

    sure a scam .

    There are some ways in which the

    environment

    games/has gamed the search engines (specifically Google), to full

    of as

    frantically as they do, so with

    any luck they’ll wake up to that. This

    work out be less of an

    conclusion when Google stops giving them so much

    millstone in the search results .

    At imminent the

    be overthrown down, I pore on

    the other side of where people did experiments

    and tried to send “reports” on the

    site

    crudely

    ripoffreport.com, Google, or sponsors at ripoffreport.com, and the reports were not approved .
