My commute has pretty much doubled from 30 to 60 minutes. Not great, but that extra time let’s me listen to a ton of podcasts, which I love! I’m also most active on twitter during the commute, and that always leads to a few new followers, which hopefully leads to more site traffic, then more revenure! Maybe that’s a stretch, but I’m a glass half full kind of guy! 🙂

With public transportation, your time commuting can be used effectively. Even if it takes an extra 10-15 minutes compared to driving, you’re getting back whatever amount of time you’d normally be piloting your car. That’s time that can be spent reading, listening to podcasts, or doing whatever you want instead of focusing on not crashing your car.

Sadly, public transport would bump my commute from 15 minutes to over an hour, so it’s not a feasible option for me. If the times were even remotely similar, I’d be all over it. Very cool to see you’ve taken advantage of this.
