Thanks to the efforts of a pair of Pforzheimer House roommates, Quad dwellers now have one less reason not to go to class in the morning.

ShuttleGirl, an Internet-based computer program that parses Harvard's shuttle schedule, went online Sunday night.

Located at www.shuttlegirl.com, the program allows users to choose points of departure and arrival and then tells them the times of the next three shuttles serving those locations.

ShuttleGirl replaces Shuttleboy, the Unix-based program that operated out of the account of its creator, David Malan '99. The start of the fall semester required a new program; Malan found he no longer had time to maintain it.

Anthony Delvecchio '01 and Jason R. P. Karamchandani '02, roommates in Pforzheimer, decided not simply to take over the old program, but in the words of Delvecchio, to "add a little flavor" to it. And so, with Malan's help, ShuttleGirl was born.

While Shuttleboy contained only text, ShuttleGirl's website boasts a logo--a red silhouette of a female wearing boot-cut pants.

For those who have cell phones with Web browsers, there is a wireless version of ShuttleGirl available at wireless.shuttlegirl.com. A Palm Pilot version may be in the works.

And a Unix version--similar to Shuttleboy--will go online sometime in the next week, Delvecchio and Karamchandani said.
