The Modo was a wireless device developed by Scout electromedia and was officially announced on August 28th, 2000. Utilizing pager networks, the device was designed to provide city-specific "lifestyle" content such as restaurant & bar reviews, movie listings, in addition to original Scout-produced content.
The industrial design was done by IDEO (which took an investment in the startup), while the device software was based on Pixo's operating system (the OS that later powered the Apple iPod). All of the electrical engineering, wireless development, and system development were done in-house by the company.
After the company was funded, one of its venture backers, Flatiron out of Manhattan, backed a similar company, Vindigo, which aimed to bring a broader range of information to the Palm Pilot platform. Because of Scout's focus on delivering mobile information to a young design-conscious audience that had no interest in using a traditional PDA, Vindigo was considered by the backers to be a complementary product offering.
The modo was advertised heavily in its target markets of Los Angeles, New York, Chicago and San Francisco, and sold in Virgin Megastores in NYC, LA, and San Francisco. The product was launched in late summer 2000 and made it to all three cities, but only shipped for one day in San Francisco. After the company shut down, the press had a field day with the product and its lofty intentions. Over time, it came out that the company's venture backers had left the company to die as many of them experienced their own financial problems (notably Idealab, Flatiron, and Chase Capital).

Modo The Car Co-op is a Metro Vancouver carsharing co-operative. It was incorporated in 1997, making it the oldest carsharing organization in the area, first carshare co-op in North America and the first carshare in the English-speaking world.
As of 2016, the member-owned not-for-profit carshare has more than 15,000 members with 500 vehicles in more than 250 locations across Metro Vancouver, including Vancouver, Richmond, UBC, Surrey, New Westminster, Burnaby, North Vancouver, Coquitlam and Port Moody. Vehicles include hybrids, minivans, pickup trucks, cargo vans and conventional sedans; 11% of Modo's fleet is hybrid or fully electric. Vehicles can be booked for immediate use or up to a year in advance, for as short as 30 minutes or as long as 30 days.
Members each have a fob that will open the vehicle they have reserved at the time they have reserved it.
Other carshares in the region include Zipcar, Evo and car2go, the latter of which is not actually a "carshare" as defined by the worldwide CarSharing Association. Modo is a two-way carshare, meaning the vehicle must be returned to its home location at the end of a booking so that the next member can pick it up at the time of their booking.
Since April 2014, the CEO is the French businesswoman Nathalie Baudoin.
