This tool enables people at their point of relative frustration-while they are sitting in traffic one day-to go home and jump online and find someone they can e-mail to start car pooling , said Donna Ambrose , GRTMA's executive director.

Using the free RideQuest.com system ( www.ridequest.com ) , commuters can register and log on with a password , enter their work schedules , home location and business location and within minutes receive a list of travelers with matching criteria.

Users also can update or delete their records at any time , sign up for a van pool group that transports eight to 15 people at once in vehicles supplied by King County , or look at Environmental Systems Research Institute Inc. maps detailing the general area where matching commuters live.

Ridequest.com was co-developed by Puget Sound Systems Group Inc. , a software development company based in Lacey , Wash. The system incorporates Hypertext Markup Language , JavaScript and a Microsoft Corp..SQL database , and it runs on a Compaq Computer Corp. dual-processor machine.

"Our goal is to make it easier to get to work, whether through the use of transit, van-pooling or any other alternative transportation that works," said Donna Ambrose, executive director of the Greater Redmond Transportation Management Association.

"We recognize, however, that transit is not an option for many Redmond-bound commuters, so this program was developed to help them find others with whom they can share the ride."

Here's how it works:

Users register and log on using a password, type in their work schedule and business and home locations, and within minutes receive a list of others whose commute matches theirs.
