A Better Way Website for the TTC

Digg It!

Inspired by Rob Oullette of Reading Toronto as well as Torontoist, BlogTO, Spacing and Transit Toronto and their readers, a small group of BarCamp Toronto mavens gathered at the Radiant Core offices to dream a better future for the TTC and it’s website.  Jay Goldman did a fantastic job summarizing myriad comments and ideas into a coherent framework for action.
There is a unique opportunity here for the TTC to embrace the power of mass collaboration and community. I am hoping that it takes advantage of this tremendous goodwill, energy and free advice to make something that is truly remarkable. A new attitude towards community engagement by the TTC could offer a way forward as it navigates its perennially difficult financial bind.
