Ido is a constructed language created with the goal of becoming a universal second language for speakers of different linguistic backgrounds as a language easier to learn than ethnic languages. This intended usage parallels the current use of English as a lingua franca, and of French, Latin, and Greek in earlier eras. Unlike English, which is a natural and frequently irregular language, Ido was specifically designed for grammatical, orthographic, and lexicographical regularity, and to favor no one who might otherwise be advantaged in a situation due to native fluency in a widespread language. In this sense, Ido is classified as a consciously created International Auxiliary Language (conIAL). Of the most widely used conIALs, the first one is Esperanto, Ido's predecessor; it is disputable whether the second place in usage goes to Ido or Interlingua.

İDO Istanbul Fast Ferries Co. Inc. (Turkish: İstanbul Deniz Otobüsleri, meaning Istanbul Sea Buses) was founded in 1987 by the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality. It started off with a fleet of 10 seabuses purchased from Norway and it now has a fleet of 20 seabuses with capacities ranging from 350 to 450 passengers. İDO was founded to help with the sea transportation and thus help ease traffic problem in the largest city of Turkey. Travel via sea is often viewed as a promising solution to the traffic problems considering the fact that Istanbul is located on the sides of the Bosphorus. Furthermore 2 ferries with a capacity of 490 passengers and 94 cars serving in İstanbul - Yalova line, another 2 ferries with the capacity of 800 passengers and 200 cars serving in İstanbul - Bandırma line joined the fleet in 1998. In 2004, 2 ferricats capable of serving 600 passengers and 112 cars started sailing Pendik - Yalova line. Another 5 seabuses and 4 ferryboats currently in process of being built will be in the service of public in 2006.
