Presenting: TaxiMe.ca

I wasn’t doing very much yesterday afternoon - went to the gym - that’s about it. After I came home I remembered I had this idea a little while back to do a small widget for estimating taxi cab fares.

 

So I threw some images together, got the google map integrated, bought the domain and voila! taxime.ca was born.

 

Go and give it a shot. Just enter your address in the following format 123 Fake St, Ottawa, ON and you should be fine. I have a few things that I still want to do with it: make it work with the iPhone/mobile devices and have a printable stylesheet.

Awsome idea.
All i wonder is, where does it get the prices from? I live in stockholm, and tried the widget, all was correct only it showed me in dollars.. just curious =)
Great job!

The prices are auto set but can be adjusted by clicking “Adjust Fare Settings”. The dollar sign is irrelevant if you enter the correct fare information.

Feel free to put in your 2 cents. I need cash.

Code must be put in between <code> </code> tags or there will be no soup for you.
