Casual carpool does not solve the first/last mile problem, though. Lyft Carpool seems to be door-to-door.

Fair but OTOH I don't mind walking 5 minutes for a free ride into the city.

I don't think the first and last mile problem applies to people living within a 5-minute walk from a casual-carpool pickup location. Most people would probably choose Lyft over casual carpool if they lived, say, 20 or more minutes from their nearest casual carpool pickup.
