Emails alerts are something. I just think something more instantaneous like Twitter would be extremely handy. I also don't think that I, nor any one else, should have to set this up. This should be a service provided by Metro for the citizens of L.A. The point here is, if Metro was doing its job for us, sites like MetroRiderLA wouldn't even need to exist. I agree with Fred.
