I think people create their own independent "ubers" anyway. It  
wouldn't be too hard using any social media app that already  
exists. Besides, car-pools have been around a long time, and  
still exist too.

When I was in university, many students posted requests for  
rides out of the city to get home - especially during long  
weekends or holidays.

I offered some rides myself.  I was about 200km from home, and  
could accommodate drop-offs in a couple of cities enroute to   
my home.  It was pretty cool to get some $s to cover fuel  
expences.

This lovely scene greeted me yesterday morning as I was waiting  
for my taxi ride. I should have probably just borrowed one of  
the equus caballus models right in front of me:
