Abstract
Methods and apparatus are provided for notifying individuals of the arrival and/or departure of public transportation vehicles. According to one aspect of the invention, one or more persons are notified regarding the location of a transportation vehicle. A subscription request is received from the one or more persons to receive a notification about the location of the transportation vehicle. The transportation vehicle is monitored to determine if one or more predefined notification events occur and a notification is sent if the predefined notification events occur. The predefined notification events comprise a predefined distance or time of the transportation vehicle from a predefined location. The subscription service is optionally fee-based. The system can optionally also provide entertainment to one or more riders on the transportation vehicle; determine an attendance of one or more riders on the transportation vehicle and/or identify one or more riders on the transportation vehicle using an identification token.
