Looks like slashdot has discovered Zipcar, the car sharing service that we use here in Boston. Rather, slashdot posts that the AP has written an article about Zipcar and other car-sharing services.
In the last 2 years, we’ve missed having a car exactly zero times that I can think of. As I said in my post in the slashdot article, it’s extremely cost-effective (we save well over $50 per month over what we were spending when we owned a car), we park closer to our place than we did before, and we don’t have to deal with the crap of owning a car. Granted, I don’t get to participate in the many many many many many many iPod/car stereo adventures, but my FM transmitter works OK most of the time (it’s not like we’re driving far, anyway, and we usually end up listening to This American Life).
