My Bus Stop Totoro

The bus stop is an important facet in our community. Thousands of people visit one each day in the Twin Cities metro area. This is a convenient place to not only get information about where the bus is, but also information on the community around the bus stop.

Totoro experiments with ways to visualize real-time arrival of buses at a given bus stop. These could be used in the physical bus stop, or maybe at a business that is very near by.

Totoro is named after the iconic bus stop image used often to represent the movie, My Neighbor Totoro.

You can easily look at any bus stop by putting the bus stop number in the URL, for instance zzolo.github.io/totoro/#17982. You can also hit the icon to find the nearest bus stop.

Look funny?

These experiments will look best in a modern, standards-compliant web browser like Chrome, Safari, or Firefix.
