OnStar Gives Volt Owners What They Want: Their Data, In the Cloud

Posted by samzenpus on Sunday November 25, 2012 @01:48PM from the mines-better dept.

Volt owners will be able to brag about their mileage more easily now thanks to OnStar. "GM rushed work on a new API to get a popular Volt owner site back on road. You probably don't think of your car as a developer platform, but Mike Rosack did. A few days after buying his Chevy Volt, Rosack started slowly mining his driving data. But he eventually revved up his efforts and created a community platform for drivers to track their own efficiency. Today more than 1,800 Volt owners compare stats with each other, jockeying for position on Rosack's Volt Stats leader board."

The lot of them. Fucking yuppies, think they're saving the earth by saving a few gallons here and there while wastefully consuming extra resources on cars' batteries taken from strip mining, or the resources on servers and electricity that make this worthless mileage site run.
