Taxi Magic is a pretty cool iPhone app.
It’s directly integrated into taxi dispatch systems. It allows you to book a taxi via Web, iPhone, or BlackBerry. It works in San Francisco, Chicago, Los Angeles, Pittsburgh, San Diego, and Washington, DC. It doesn’t make the taxi fare any cheaper. Nor do you get a discount of any sort.
Let’s say you stumble out of a bar after having a few drinks with friends or coworkers. Or, with holiday dinners around the corner, spending time with your date’s/partner’s/spouse’s family leads you to have an extra beer or glass of wine you may have otherwise not had.
Instead of smashing your car or getting a DUI, let’s say you cleverly pull out your handy-dandy little mobile computer. You know, the one you’re already addicted to anyway? Sure, they’ll think you’re sending a text or a tweet, but you’ll look like the coolest person ever in the history of the world, when — with just a few taps — you get that taxi to pull up out front and honk for you.
Not only can you can leave your annoying coworkers and that dysfunctional family in the dust, but you will save at least $2,000.

The free download is the better deal, don’t ya think?
