i took the bus last night
there's this world-class service called i_is
where you just need to key in your bus stop number and bus number
and *TADAH* you will receive information on your next bus arrival time

i did
my bus arrival time was scheduled to be in 30mins
well, i waited since i was too lazy to walk

haha dun trust the iris too much you must check every 3 minutes means you need to refresh the browser to make sure that it is working.

i sms-ed leh.. each sms costs 5 cents leh... how to keep getting updates?!

[natlegin]

use your hand phone web browser navigate to www.sbstransit.com.sg/mobileiris its cheaper i think using GPRS. then refresh the browser will get the updates.

what kind of bus comes after a friggin 59 minutes?? Aren't the bus companies supposed to provide a minimum QoS and ensure that bus frequencies are within say 15 minutes or something??

anyway, it's fun to read about other people's public transport rants once in a while, cos i know at least i'm not alone :'D

anyway, they did keep to their minimum QoS mah... and that's to allow passengers to stay put at their nicely furnished bus stops (for a longer period of time) and let passengers ENJOY the efficiency of the i_is system...

awww... we are all mistaken.. the WORLD-CLASS service aint all about the actual service, but the 'condiments' that come with it... u dun really need the chicken in the chicken rice, but the garlic chilli that comes with it... getit?
