Does anyone have details of this #Uber app everyone's talking about? It sounds awesome. I'd never heard of it until today…

Hadn't heard of Uber till the cabbie protest. I've just downloaded it.

I just signed up to #uber. Cabbies might as well be doing PR for them.

Hadn't heard of Uber before the taxi strike. Signed up now. Bit of an own goal methinks!

In protest at the London black cab strike today I have just signed up to Uber.

I use cabs every now and then but today I downloaded Uber because everyone is talking about Uber.
