There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Every college campus seems to agree that bikesharing programs are a good idea, but many are hesitant to invest in an expensive system that has little chance of being profitable. The high cost of bikeshare programs struck three Georgia Tech classmates as an opportunity. "We realized that cities and campuses around the world were overpaying for clunky systems that were expensive to set up and maintain," said Kyle Azevedo, a co-founder of viaCycle, Georgia Tech's answer to expensive bikeshare systems.
