According to James and his company, Ichiro will make History [...]
Amazing. Recently, I wrote about how I was disappointed that I paid $0.99 for an app called Catch The Bus. That paid application only supports 5 MBTA bus lines. (See update below) On that post, I got a comment that said “Hey Check out OpenMBTA mobile website.” The website was awesome. Once you get used [...]
