Traffic usually produces aggravation. But for Christian Brüggemann, it led to app inspiration. While sitting in a London café with a buddy, observing cars packed onto one street while another was empty, he thought, what if vehicles could be directed in such a way that optimized all the possible routes? Brüggemann, 25, and two of his friends, all of them students at universities in Germany, used this idea to create a Windows Phone app called Greenway that aims to thwart traffic jams and get you from one point to another in the shortest amount of time.
