As the saying goes, “there is no ‘I’ in team”, and the basic underpinning of that statement is universally true, but there is a ‘me’. The importance of the ‘me’ factor in building a team is possibly the single most important element of a successful enterprise. Cabcorner LLC is an enterprise built on the foundation [...]

Our boy Fazal was the first to tell us about CabSense, a venture sponsored by NYC’s Taxi & Limousine Commission, which pledges to analyze “tens of millions of GPS data points from NYC taxis to help you find the best corner to catch a cab.”

Indeed, we were intrigued.  Not only was the service somewhat [...]

Though CabCorner is an international enterprise, New York City will always be our home base.  So it’s interesting to see how “cab sharing” as a concept is being received by the public in its earliest stages, as executed by the TLC.
The New York Times’s city critic just published a rather humorous look at the whole [...]

The New York Times noted that few people took advantage of the service on its inaugural day.  DNA [...]

That’s [...]

The site exposed us to a few [...]

To my fellow teammates and our loyal supporters:
Merry Christmas, and a belated Happy Hanukkah!  I’m so proud to pen this year-end review of the CabCorner project.  We’ve come a long way and enjoyed so much success during our first year of operation… its all due to the hard work yall have invested, and I write [...]

Check out the dispatches from New York City’s local news authority NY1.
