A few days ago, I went through the hoops to get my Chinese visa for a trip I will be taking to Shenyang in a few weeks. Unfortunately for me, I had to have the visa back the same day, both because I’m leaving for Manchester, UK in a few hours AND because I didn’t want to take the Path and the Subway across town again to pick it up. So I had to do it myself and I had to have it expedited.

Reserve Taxi Transportation Online
1-800-Cab-Ride.com is a new website that offers you the ability to reserve cab rides in advance, online. What a spectacular idea! This service is the first to offer passengers to order taxis via the web, with the price including all fees (such as airport pick-ups), tolls and even includes the tip. Does that mean that it may turn out to cost a little more than a metered ride? Possibly. But if your goal is convenience rather than savings, this could be really handy. 1-800-Cab-Ride.com claims to …
