Add some camaraderie to your drive by bringing some fellow commuters along for the ride. Not only will you save on gas and transportation expenses, but you'll also reduce carbon emissions. Plus, you'll find plenty to gab about during stoplights and rush-hour jams, which you can turn into networking and socializing opportunities.

Find other riders headed to your neck of the woods by visiting GoLoco and punching in your routes and times of travel, which you can make visible to a select few or to everyone on the site. Or tap into your Facebook network at Zimride, so you'll truly never roam alone.

eRideShare lets you narrow down listings by state or province. And, if you live in the Colorado area, try SmartTrips CarGo for instant carpool matching.
