Miloš N Mladenović challenges the conventional belief that technology is linear progress. He argues that technology and society are closely connected, with technology shaping our ideas and society in turn. He believes technology is not only functional but also contains ideological concepts.
Miloš will speak at an upcoming Trufi webinar. Subscribe to their newsletter for updates (link in comments)

Check out "Quirqui Rutas," a new public transport app developed in Oruro, Bolivia. Volunteers used the Trufi Core #opensource code base and #OpenStreetMap to create the city's first GTFS - #opendata available to city planners, transport managers, and researchers.

If you're using OSM, either as a blind individual profiting from the available mapping data with one of the navigation apps or as a an OSM contributor, this OSM wiki article could be interesting as it explains how to map the world with blind users in mind. It explains specialty tags, some of which I had no idea existed, suggests tools for data entry and introduces the Blind OSM project. #OSM #GPS #Navigation #Mapping #Accessibility #Blind OSM for the blind – OpenStreetMap Wiki https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_for_the_blind
Designers: Only you can prevent branding disasters! If someone doesn't help us develop our branded materials, some non-designer is going to do it. [Shudders]
Help Trufi look as good as we are.

Just published a page about our GTFS services – creating data in transport data dead zones. Would appreciate any feedback.

Critical journalism is paywalled, disinformation is free. What did we expect to happen?

The sight lines of a Silverado, F250, Ram, and 2500 are all worse than an M1 Abrams Tank.

The refreshing thing about this is that these two aren't immediately rejecting the idea with a knee-jerk "I'LL DIE IF I CAN'T DRIVE" attitude.

If you are in #Russia and would like to turn those routes into a #GTFS that could power #Android and #iOS apps, let us know: https://tinyurl.com/2ofe4tfh
Yes! We can do an app in #Russia!
@weeklyOSM features three videos in #Russian on mapping bus routes (and a link to a Trufi blog post about #cochabamba #bolivia)
