I was doing some work on Tampa Rail just now when I noticed that HART redesigned their website and launched it December 31.  With each incarnation they always seem to get sleeker, savvier, and efficient with their presentation.  The latest demonstrates HART's apparent affection for the blog format.  The front page itself is a blog with the margins serving off the usual fare.  

It's still got some post-launch bugs.  For instance, in Firefox the "Alert" icon which takes you to important information regarding bus detours and the like, is overrun by the sidebar links on my laptop.  This doesn't appear to be the case using MSIE.  Also, the RSS link didn't work in either browser.  When it's working it will be neat for people to finally be able to RSS from HART directly.

It also incorporates Google's transit trip planner much more seamlessly than before.  You can now interface with the service directly from the front page, though this makes risky presentational use of a frameset.

HART 2009 Website Introduces Mr. Hart Throb

I was pleased to find more meaningful image inclusion of the Teco Line Streetcar.   Heh - and, for the ladies, it looks like HART 2009 is introducing Mr. Hart Throb.  Give the Flash player a little time.
