Not sure how quickly it will catch on, but this is an interesting take on the future of personal transit in a rapidly growing city like Austin, TX.

My cousin in Austin, Rose Hansen Smith, co-produced a documentary film called The Unforeseen, executive produced by Robert Redford and Terrence Malick. I saw it at Sundance in 2007. It deftly uses Austin as a lens to frame the environmental impact of urban and suburban growth in metropolitan areas of the country, but does not get into specific ways to fix it.
