Singapore's Bus Stop

Open source maybe not very comfortable for everyone, because sometimes you want some degree of confidentiality of your codes. However open source is very useful for learning codes. Learning codes is like learning languages. It doesn't have any meaning if you cannot understand it. Sometimes a simple words can be hostile, when you use it under some circumstances. The same principle also works with codes. Simple codes like computer virus is never that complicated. The codes are simply hostile.

This codes can be categorized to be hostile, but not that damaging. The codes is never intended to break someone else's codes, but rather use someone else's codes. The hostility part is like piracy, but unlike piracy, it doesn't have anything to do with money. It's just like, if there's no law regulating it, it's not breaking the law yet.

This site is a simple website that generating the time left for waiting bus at Singapore. The site is quite useful, but sometimes you want to develop it further and you can't expect that site developer would develop it any further. The disadvantage of that site is you have to use numeric codes for input, meaning you have to research the codes first. Perhaps you want integrate it with this website, meaning you want to integrate it with graphical map that would be much convinient to use.
