The cell phone HailCab service is the best way to catch a taxi cab and its free!  HailCab is a Location Based Service allowing anyone with a cell phone/smartphone to Hail a Cab to his/her location quickly and know exactly when it is arriving--no more downtime walking aimlessly, yelling, waving your arms, standing in the cold, remembering cab phone numbers, etc.  You can even lock in on a cab from inside the office or your home and get a countdown to arrival and a fare estimation.  Anyone with a cell phone or smartphone can use HailCab to view a map of nearby cabs (green cabs are available, red cabs are occupied) and use the GPS or text messaging technology to bring the cab right to you 24/7. There are over 15 features for the Rider and Cab Driver. Sign Up to Click and Ride!
