Xatori Inc., a month-old company created by two Stanford alumni has just created an application in an attempt to cash in from Obama's promise to have one million electric cars by 2015. Well, perhaps not "cash in" since this iPhone app that lets you find places to plug in your Chevy Volt around the city is currently free of charge.
PlugShare is user-generated, so any shop or diner that wants to attract more customers can upload their iformation and become a "power-station" for drivers who forgot to leave their car charging the night before. Add one for cell-phones and I'll become a customer immediately. The application just came out, and it may not be too popular at the moment but the idea is--of course--looking into the future.
