iPhone app for Irish Rail
Dave Barrett showed us all what he got up to last weekend…
…With a lovely little site that’s made to look like an iPhone app but is accessible normally through the web. The site simply serves the busy commuter or tourist who needs to plan a journey where the Irish Rail site fails. I’ve often been frustrated at the Irish Rail site and how pedantic it tends to be. For example, if you don’t put in your station exactly as it appears on the station picker list, then it pushes you away. I ask you – how many people know that Dublin (Connolly) should be like that? Normal humans would probably try with Connolly…
Anyway, Dave came up with this little site so he can access train times from his iphone whenever he’s on the move. I love it! Don’t like the site so make his own version!
You can use this nice little Irish Rail for iPhone app too. And if you have any great ideas on how to enhance it, like integrating it with GPS or something better, please tell Dave (and he’ll probably knock it out over the weekend!).
