For those wanting to know how the site works, here’s an initial overview (feel free to add or correct things)
I will keep this post basic until I have some more time to explore the site….and maybe add some screens of what I’m talking about lol.
Sign up - Straightforward signup (username / pass) or you can login with a social media account. Verify your account via email.
Profiles - After signing in you can set up your Ride My Car profile. I gathered that if you wanted to offer a ride you would need to register your car etc. It also allows ride preferences to be set. Not sure if you're able to interact like a social network?
Search - search for various rides types including latest routes, shopping, travel etc. My guess is as more ride types are made they will become searchable. There’s also women only rides! The advanced search works pretty well and lets you filter various things (not sure if price searching was in there...tbc).
Wallets - Pretty simple and clean wallet system, I didn’t mess around too much with it but was able to generate addresses. I can see the transactions and withdrawal functions are all ready.
Rides - I browsed through a few rides and saw people were able to offer rides for whatever prices per passenger they wished. Offering a ride is pretty easy, there is a map api that shows your route and you can calculate how much you want to charge. You can specify various details including if the trip is a return or even recurring through selected dates!
...And that’s basically where I got up to. I think the RIDE project has shaped up to be a solid platform. I’ll post more very soon
