i want to check it out
i did not know about arkab eih? how do i download it on our mobile to check it out?
didnāt try it
am new to smart phones didnāt try it actually , but it looks promising
also by2ollak is a good app ā¦hope u guys get to make an app an much more 
above the ground is much better
for some reason couldnāt post this as a replay for the above comments , I think my firefox is fooling around .
the public transport in general is not sufficient for the no of people - in the greater Cairo- so in the rush hours - which is mainly the whole day except for some hours - all public transport is over packed . and sometimes itās hard to read or to do anything
for me my preferences for short distance : bicycle
for long distance: Bus then micro bus then Metro as I donāt like to travel under the ground unless I am in a hurry as it is much faster .
I rarely drive also , even my license was stolen in 2011 and didnāt get a new one till now .
-------
back to the transportation problem , Itās big and initiatives like arkab ehĀ , by2ollak and hopefully "bos 7awalek " reduce some of the Symptoms of the problem but they r just first steps to untangle this BIG PROBLEM , interventionsĀ in the infrastructure is needed and it takes time ā¦
pooling
While i cannot contest usefulness (at least of on an idea level) of arkab eh, i do think pooling of transport is more efficient and effective as far as solving the traffic problem is concerned.
Carpooling (our app - and there is no other real contender - kartag.com) and buspooling (i recommend tawseela.net). Check and use. Both poolers are in the process of coming up with a transport āpackageā for event organizers and companies who need transport solutions.
interesting
this seems very efficient indeedĀ !
@2mavin do u have some statistics about the no of users , rate of increase in using carpooling , what neighborhood is it more likely to use the app and carpooling ?
also the people who use this app could be a good target group for "Bos 7awalek "
