Organizing a car pool can be a logistical challenge.
Divide The Ride (http://www.dividetheride.com) is a carpooling Web site designed to help busy parents by drawing up shared calendars. It works much like a personal planner by letting each user choose electronically who makes up his or her carpool, linking families who know and trust each other, and creating a schedule of driving assignments in sync with everyone's individual needs. As soon as all the information is collected, the schedule is e-mailed to everyone in the group along with text messages and e-mail reminders.
Unlike traditional carpool planning, the Web site takes only a few moments to produce a schedule once every group member has entered his or her driving availability.
Members can track saved miles, shared rides, and gas saved. Using the technology is free, and all shared information — such as names, pick-up points and destinations — is limited to the group.
