bus approaching alert #61

Idea - when looking at a stop, click on a bus to make it set an alert, like the bus is 1 min away and you should start paying attention, move out of the nearby shade tree and next to the stop, etc.

It's a good one. Unfortunately, the framework I use to make this app (Cordova/Phonegap) makes it tricky to do work when the app isn't actively being used. But perhaps the tech has advanced since the last time I looked, worth checking out again.
