Any chance we are going to get a "new and improved" Trip Finder? Personally, I think the one we have now is horrid. Glad to hear it. Any chance we are going to get a “new and improved” Trip Finder?

I'm pretty excited about the site, should make it easier to riders to find information, plan trips, etc., similar to <a href="http://www.mbta.com/" rel="nofollow">Boston's MBTA site.</a> We’re launching a new website soon (first phase should be in a week or so, second phase by March), that will include social media icons on the homepage, just like SFBART or MTA.

However, for those that do - a quick look at places like Bay Area Rapid Transit in San Francisco and Metropolitan Transit Authority in New York shows that both transit agencies have icon links to Twitter and Facebook on their main transit pages. Perhaps Metro could add icon links to Metro's main homepage? I am neither a Facebook or Twitter user, so I don’t personally have much interest in either.
