With the advancement in technology, you can now do things that seemed impossible even a decade ago. One of those break-through inventions is an application for booking cabs from the comfort of your home. Moreover, among these applications, Uber is considered as one of the best. With a skyrocketing growth spurt since its inception in 2009, Uber has been a leading cab-hailing service. No matter the nature of setbacks with partners–drivers and self-driven cars, it clearly seems that none of this has affected Uber’s loyal application users. The investors have also not seemed to be averse towards it—as funding has been steady and growing all along.
