Is it right that I've more social network site memberships than social networks? I guess another one won't hurt.
World Commute is a grand sounding site with a grand sounding raison d'etre:
World Commute is a not-for-profit, free social-network website to encourage, promote and track the use of non-motorized transportation around the world. We promote the idea of “Greater Health. Healthier Environment” through a unified effort of individuals engaging in physical activity for transportation purposes.
A place to meet others, and maybe get competitive about your weekly commuting mileage, get tips for cycling to work or just, ya know, 'connect'.
It is funded and run by Cateye, a company that happen to manufacture a lot of products that cyclists tend to need. We'll leave any doubts about their altruism to those more susceptible to skepticism.
It's got a bit of a way to go till it catches our personal favorite social network site for cyclists, and an even further way to go till it catches just getting out on a ride with some mates.
Now there's a thought...
