Uber in Tampa, FL

While attending a conference in Tampa, FL a few weeks back, I was given the opportunity to experience Uber first hand. I have participated in ride sharing programs before, so the concept wasnt foreign but I was not confident that the advertised product would deliver on its promises. I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to locate a ride and it was considerably cheaper(read free) than taking a taxi because it had just launched in the area. Granted, my positive experience can easily be outweighed by a negative one, but for now programs such as this will receive my support.
