Abstract

A message may be sent to a user to solicit user feedback about a shared ride parameter. The message may include a question based on a value of the parameter. A response to the message may be received from the user. A setting of a ride sharing system may be modified based on the response. The modified setting may be a shared ride parameter value associated with the user. The message may be sent as an e-mail, a text message, a web page, and/or a chat message. The message may be automatically generated based on data collected by a computer of a vehicle used for the shared ride.

Claims (32)

1 . A processor-implemented method comprising:

sending a message to a user to solicit user feedback about a shared ride parameter, wherein the message includes a question based on a value of the parameter and the message is sent as at least one of an e-mail, a text message, a web page, and a chat message;

receiving a response to the message from the user; and

modifying a setting of a ride sharing system based on the response, wherein the modified setting is a shared ride parameter value associated with the user.

2 . A processor-implemented method comprising:

sending a message to a user to solicit user feedback about a shared ride parameter, wherein the message includes a question based on a value of the parameter;

receiving a response to the message from the user; and

modifying a setting of a ride sharing system based on the response.

3 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the modified setting is a shared ride parameter value associated with the user.

4 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the modified setting is a tolerance level of a shared ride parameter associated with the user.

5 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the modified setting is a shared ride parameter value associated with a plurality of users.

6 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the message is sent as at least one of an e-mail, a text message, a web page, and a chat message.

7 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the message is automatically generated based on data collected by a computer of a vehicle used for the shared ride.

8 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the message is automatically generated based on data collected by a device not connected to a vehicle used for the shared ride.

9 . An apparatus comprising:

a processor to:

receive, from a user, a response to a message sent to the user to solicit user feedback about a shared ride parameter, wherein the message includes a question based on a value of the parameter; and

modify a setting of a ride sharing system based on the response.

10 . The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the modified setting is a shared ride parameter value associated with the user.

11 . The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the modified setting is a tolerance level of a shared ride parameter associated with the user.

12 . The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the modified setting is a shared ride parameter value associated with a plurality of users.

13 . The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the message is sent as at least one of an e-mail, a text message, a web page, and a chat message.

14 . The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the message is automatically generated based on data collected by a computer of a vehicle used for the shared ride.

15 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium embodied with computer-executable instructions for causing a computer to execute instructions, the computer instructions comprising:

sending a message to a user to solicit user feedback about a shared ride parameter, wherein the message includes a question based on a value of the parameter;

receiving a response to the message from the user; and

modifying a setting of a ride sharing system based on the response.

16 . The medium of claim 15 , wherein the modified setting is a shared ride parameter value associated with the user.

17 . The medium of claim 15 , wherein the modified setting is a tolerance level of a shared ride parameter associated with the user.

18 . The medium of claim 15 , wherein the modified setting is a shared ride parameter value associated with a plurality of users.

19 . The medium of claim 15 , wherein the message is sent as at least one of an e-mail, a text message, a web page, and a chat message.

20 . The medium of claim 15 , wherein the message is automatically generated based on data collected by a computer of a vehicle used for the shared ride.
