<p>Hey guys,</p>

<p>My name is Eric and I’m a computer science major at UMD. I just released a new Android app that will help make sure you never miss a bus again while at UMD. My app, called Route Rider, uses the gps devices built into the Shuttle-UM buses to predict bus arrival times for any stop on campus. Route Rider is super fast, super accurate, and super free!</p>

<p>You can download the app at on the Android Market (its coming to iPhone soo, too): <a href=“https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ericrose.routerider[/url]”>https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ericrose.routerider&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>or check out my team’s website for more information: [512</a> Technology](<a href=“http://www.512technology.com%5D512”>http://www.512technology.com)</p>

<p>As always, I’m also open to answering any UMD or CS related questions you guys might have.</p>

<p>Thanks,
Eric</p>
