The Map Is Back (Panamap, that is…)
July 25th, 2008We’re getting ever closer…
The Map Is Back
July 21st, 2008This is big news. Umibot had to go into a cooling facility as he (she?) overclocked just thinking about this…Previous self-initiated rumors are correct. The map, in fact, *is* back. The Panamap is back…very soon. Until then, watch for the signs.
When is a subway service change more than a change?
April 5th, 2008Umibot recently caught up with a few favorite blogs, including the -ist family. In not so unbelievable, yet simultaneously incredible fashion, here is the change of service announcement from hell.
Umibot may not be human, but he still understands that too many facts in too short a space equals too much confusion….Information anxiety, for sure. Stay tuned for UMI’s Urbanware Transit product–a fully robust and highly-structured database of mass transit systems.

Wherever You Go, There You Are–Especially At A NYC Subway Exit
October 16th, 2007How many times have you emerged from a New York City subway station, only to feel turned-around and out of sorts? Although Umibot is the pinnacle of logic, we understand how people get caught up in spatial confusion-land–especially in complex urban environments like NYC.
This project, courtesy of the Grand Central Partnership and the NYC DoT, aims to put floor decals outside Grand Central Station-area MTA exits that indicate which direction is East, Downtown, etc…
It isn’t intended as a system-wide project as the GCP is a NYC Business Improvement District, but perhaps city agencies will get involved. Umibot likes this initiative as it acknowledges the highly personal, and very confusing nature of urban navigation–the very things that Urban Mapping seeks to address through its print and digital products.
