Using a case study approach situated historically, this paper examines how dynamic ridesharing (DRS) has evolved through time in tandem with changes in information and communication technologies (ICTs). Informed speculation is then offered on the future of DRS. A chronological review of a sample of DRS systems reveals the strengths and weaknesses of various technologies. Recent shifts in the software development industry's business and technical models have changed the type of applications being created, development processes and uses. The prospects of these changes on DRS are discussed, focusing on the issues of security/privacy and adoption. The roles of old and new stakeholders, such as automobile manufacturers, software developers and end users are also discussed. The increasing technical confidence and competence of the end user is identified as essential to the success of any contemporary DRS application.
