"the look and feel of a slightly shinier version of mass transit"
For rolling around during this off-season of "should Uber (and similar) be allowed upstate" debate: Over at The Awl, Matt Buchanan thinks through some of the possible implications of Uber's apparent plans to become something like privatized mass transit -- including the death of publicly-run transportation. (Uber yes or no, mass transit if facing some potentially interesting twists if a few recent trends continue.) [The Awl]

There will always be a place for mass transit, as long as we have the will to maintain it. Not everyone can afford an Uber fare every day.
