Google Maps live public transit updates.


Pretty slick: Google Maps with live public transit.  Works on both desktops and mobile, and doesn't require updates to your mobile app.  (The mobile one is a bit slicker, I think.)  Of course, if you haven't been to Portland lately, updated information along the the transit mall in downtown, and along the Max and Streetcar stops are real-time updates.

I personally use an app called AnyStop, to quickly pull up Streetcar times in live updates.  It's a lot faster than getting Maps to load, so I'll probably stick to AnyStop, but this is definitely a nice thing to have.
