Merry Christmas folks!  Just a quick post to keep you apprised of the industry…
Just over a month ago, we reported that The Artist Formerly Known As UberCab had obtained significant financing.  Well, fresh on the heels of this success comes Avego, the ridesharing operator who just announced an infusion over $5 million.
We came across Avego [...]

Move on over, ZipCar, because the industry you birthed has a few new players in town.  Although these sites don’t offer the taxi-sharing and taxi-booking options that define the CabCorner business model, they nonetheless operate in the same space (Social Transportation Logistics).
