The company said that the Ridesearch.com’s subscription search tool will enable users locate people interested in carpooling and generates a map of routes for finding other people who live and work nearby. The company acquired Ridesearch.com in May 2006.
Our mission is to encourage carpool safety and effective communication to empower everyday commuters to initiate a carpool, said Brian Bass, chief executive at Motivium Consulting. RideSearch takes the matchmaking website model and allows users to be very selective about who they carpool with.
Another online car-pooling service which operates in the US is GoLoco.org, which uses the Facebook network to help arrange for carpools and rideshares for people headed in the same direction.
