Get Hitched to Even More Strangers

Hitchsters.com, the online ride-sharing site for NYC-area airports, is expanding into Brooklyn next week. The service, which hooks you up with stingy strangers looking to split cab fare, will now partner with a Brooklyn-based car service, making trips to LGA and JFK easier for the heaps of travelers who aren't headed to Manhattan.

As we've mentioned before, taking a cab is usually something we do to avoid people: If we want to meet strangers, we'll take the subway. But for Brooklynites--who don't have cabs whizzing past at all hours--splitting a ride could make a lot of sense. And if things go nicely in NYC, Hitchsters plans to expand its reach beyond the city. Might we suggest Las Vegas--and its massive cab queue--next?
