Portland Trimet Presentation on Open Data

TransitCampBayArea talk about data sharing and third-party sites

http://www.slideshare.net/headway/joe-hughes-on-indie-transit-sites-gtfs-and-agency-data-sharing This is a graphics-heavy talk that includes lots of screenshots of third-party sites, and discusses the often-rocky relationship between transit agencies and outside developers. (Unfortunately, it's missing a lot of my commentary about the slides, as well as the demos & discussion by Chris Messina and Bryce Nesbitt --Joe)

NextBus Eng. Head Urging Developer To Lobby For Data

http://headwayblog.com/2008/03/03/transit-camp-bay-area-report/ Not an entire presentation, but it's worth mentioning that Mike Smith, NextBus's head of engineering, urged developers at the first TransitCampBayArea event to lobby NextBus and the agencies for access to NextBus arrival/location feeds.
