There was no standard for the type of car, no specification for drivers, just a request for a ride from you going out and an offer(s) to fulfill that ride from someone else( a ride provider). This Uber could provide a rating system for providers, perhaps an integrated payment system (consumers, providers) and ???. The pricing would'nt be set by the company but by the providers, </li> </ol></ol> <h2>[WHERE]</h2> <ol> <li>]</li> </ol> <h2>[WHEN]</h2> <ol> <li>]</li> </ol> <h2>[EXAMPLE]</h2> <ol> <li>] Uber</li> <li>] lyft</li> <li>] sidecar</li> <li>] Altschool,</li> <li>] Buzzfeed,</li> <li>] Harry’s,</li> <li>] Nest,</li> <li>] Tesla,</li> <li>] Warby Parker.</li> <li>]</li> </ol> <h2>[HOW-TO]</h2> <ol> <li>]</li> </ol> <h2>[REFERENCE]</h2> <ol> <li>] Full Monty - Doesn't necessarily mean to take off all your clothes.
