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

Developed by the School of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Georgia Tech, the Cycle Atlanta app allows cyclists automatically track their routes and manually upload feedback about road conditions and safety issues. these bikers will be able to voice their need for certain infrastructural changes, including the creation of new bike lanes and the construction of conveniently-located repair shops, without having to attend a public meeting. Cycle Atlanta is one example of a growing number of mobile apps that are being designed to improve, inspire and empower entire communities.
