Commuter Feed

How Does This Thing Work?

• Create a Twitter or Pownce account

  Twitter and Pownce are popular free services for friends to communicate by posting quick, one-sentence updates using the web or a mobile device.

• Follow or Add Commuter Feed

  Our username is “commuter.” This is how we find your updates.

  Please note: replies to @commuter will be publicly published on Commuter Feed, even if you're keeping your Twitter updates private. This allows people to use Commuter Feed even when they send updates to friends only.
• Find your City Code

  Know the code of your local airport? That's how we find you. Find it now.

   

• Log an incident or update

  Use the following format when you post a Twitter or Pownce update to report an incident:

  @commuter LAX Accident on Sunset Blvd at Vine

  That's:@commuter(SPACE) citycode(SPACE) incident.

  Please note: Commuter Feed posts recent updates once every 2 minutes. Please be patient, your update may not be visible for up to 5 minutes. Make sure to remember your city code, or your update will not show up at all! For Pownce, updates must be sent to "the public".
