Seems to me this might work better than shoutboxing or statusing... Remember, don't make info public you don't want everyone to have.

This is just a way to coordinate carpooling, dating, etc. The BE NICE rule still applies.  Be nice, or you may get left at the curb.

Let others know the way you would like to be contacted, and have courtesy to others who don't want to carpool/date you.

All rides, carpools,dates, etc, are up to you. This is just a spot to bring together those in need.
