Re: Application idea
Seth, Great idea! Unfortunately, I'm also a little too busy to develop this right now. Could you let me know if you hear of something?

Separate from the political fight, I thought of an opportunity for a technical solution to this problem. I could build a table of legal parking spaces, and set my FreeRunner to tell me when I park, that this space is only legal until 8:30 am There is a web site that has logic like this for NYC. You point at a street, and it shows green for the spots that are legal the longest. In practical terms, it would be an integration when my home network is detected, it will know to look at gps figures to check the parking regulation table. Then, in theory, it could Text-to Voice. Seth, just keep in mind, this is only legal until 8:30 am. Other possibilities... If the phone remembers where I parked have an alarm at 8:22 say Move the car!. More sophisticated might be for each car to have a FreeRunner, so the vehicle itself can notify.
