I think we have to think solution to allow people to work at home or near home, by developping solutions as Conference call, e meeting, Webcast, solutions to allow all work for Clients site with all necessary securities, as we have at IBM site.

RIMM makes app developement too complex and Google simply has too small a user base with only a small T-Mobile community. However the people that can write this code tell me my rather advanced idea would probably require the resources and industry leadership of an established IT organization. One with the necessary clout to bring together all the interested parties. I cannot think of a computer firm that would be willing to take on a project that might revolutionize urban planning and daily commutes, can you? http://thwphotos.blogspot.com/2008/12/use-smart-grids-for-traffic-energy-and.html Jack,

I wonder if any of the main device makers have an open API that might be the basis for an experiment. Thomas:

Government and private workers must be given financial incentives to use these smart grids. Dial an 800 number and learn the best times and route to make your commute to work. Get a small bonus if you do this and actually use the knowledge gained. We could program GPS navigation systems to calculate the fuel and time costs of driving to work at 6AM versus 9AM. People willing to participate would get gas cards or credits for driving to work during the most efficient commuting hours. thw2006@gmail.com Public and private partnerships must encourage the use of smart traffic grids to help any business that operates 24 hours a day.
