Wow, so much comments. Great! I'm implanting a "continue without registration" option right now and think it will be available from next week. @mulligan I'm not a fan of forcing other people to download an app. That's why Routeshare works like it does right now.

@emieljanson this looks great, and I'm also impressed with the homepage video. slick demo I frequently use Moby (http://mo.by/) when I'm meeting up with someone - look forward to trying Routeshare! @rrhoover you know when I use this kind of thing is (1) if I'm running late they can see me vs me guessing I'm 10 min away, (2) when I'm meeting someone in the … See more
