What is Digg?48 Comments
- adroit, on 07/12/2008, -9/+35Umm iPhone app please?
- Pake, on 07/13/2008, -1/+9I was thinking that as well. Someone's going to cause a lot of ***** and most likely sue the city council over this idea, because of their own stupidity.
- sfrench, on 07/12/2008, -1/+9Just what people need to be doing... checking their iphone while driving around looking for a parking spot.
Also...I'm willing to bet the applications for parking enforcement won't be lost on city officials. - h4mx0r, on 07/13/2008, -2/+8I say it'll make for one helluva youtube video.
- kentdoggydog, on 07/12/2008, -2/+7Hopefully, you'll have a passenger with you to operate the device, right? Also...Seattle next, please.
- mynameistux, on 07/13/2008, -0/+5I pick scissors,
/stab - GarrettB, on 07/13/2008, -2/+7Retard, the stock market isn't open.
- godinster, on 07/13/2008, -3/+7There's enough iPhone fanboyism on this forum, we need no more.
- linagee, on 07/13/2008, -0/+4"This spot is free to park in" *car parks on top of another car*
- barkerja, on 07/13/2008, -1/+5I'm sure Kevin Rose digging it might have some sort effect on it's placement.
- linagee, on 07/13/2008, -0/+3I wonder if there's a metal frame inside to protect the electronics or if they just get smashed every time a truck rolls over the bump?
- BlameCanada, on 07/13/2008, -0/+3What really needs to be invented is a way to reach through the Internet and slap somebody.
- Chaos12, on 07/13/2008, -0/+3You only can't talk on the phone. Texting/etc. is still legal, somehow.
- philnash, on 07/13/2008, -0/+3Yeah, 'cause when I know there's a space somewhere I drive at 50 with my eyes closed just knowing that when I stop I'll be safely parked.
- TheOther1, on 07/13/2008, -0/+2Yea! A suspended license will surely teach those murderers a lesson or two!
- LastSight, on 07/26/2008, -0/+1well happy to see our tax money is finally being used for something cool
aint it good to live in sf? - arial, on 07/13/2008, -2/+3Would be useful for those of us that work in the city BUT Cali has the new hands free law. So I'm not sure how this is suppose to work, trying to find a parking space alone is a bitch with all the crazy cab drivers and so on...
- LukeBeaumont, on 07/13/2008, -0/+1Way to appeal to peoples fear of dire consequences without even thinking about it. There would be many ways to get around that. For one, you could make the system only tell the parking space to one person per ten minutes.

- Suicyc0, on 02/17/2009, -0/+0Maybe they just need to get in shape and WALK instead of worrying about parking...

[Link:http://www.backup-sensor.com|parking sensor] - mrdoughboy69, on 07/13/2008, -2/+1Knowing where parking spaces are doesn't change the fact that there aren't enough parking spaces for the amount of people we have on the roads. This will just greatly distract people while they're driving because they'll be constantly looking at street signs or their cellphones. Clearing congestion requires fewer cars on the road or more parking spaces.
- mt3ch, on 07/13/2008, -2/+1Wow, this is a really cool idea. While on one side, yes there often will be multiple cars vying for the same spot - especially in crowded cities, however I'm sure inevitably you will save money on gas and time.
- RyogaVee, on 07/14/2008, -1/+0I'll buy that for a dollar!
- LeeSoong, on 07/13/2008, -2/+1And also allow for faster and more efficient delivery of
parking violation citations.
Better start carrying $ 20 in quarters folks.
Feed that meter! - CatsAreGods, on 07/13/2008, -2/+1I wish people didn't digg this remark down, it is VERY clever!
- AparoidX, on 07/13/2008, -2/+0That's usually my luck, dugg down until someone that has a brain comes along.
- jxke, on 07/13/2008, -2/+0i'll play rock paper scissors with you over this spot!
- mst3kcrow, on 07/13/2008, -4/+2I think it would be fun to watch one of those sensors to malfunction.
- whiteknives, on 07/13/2008, -3/+1From my experience, looking at my cellphone is the LAST thing I want to be doing when driving in SF. Sweet idea either way, though.
- Kumaku, on 07/13/2008, -3/+1That's probably the best thing to come from this finagled wireless business.
Pretty neat AND organized. - angrycat, on 07/13/2008, -3/+1Hahaha they're using JB weld to glue them down.
- barkerja, on 07/13/2008, -4/+1When I first saw this, that was my first thought as well. There definitely needs to be an iPhone app. If someone was going to be fumbling with their phone whilst driving, I would hope it was with something such as an iPhone app that is easy to use not a web site or sms alike.
- webguylive0com, on 07/13/2008, -3/+0Cool, they should put this in my building parking lots.
- pollyboxer, on 07/12/2008, -8/+5WOW!!!
- Rivetgeek, on 07/13/2008, -4/+1Who the hell drives in SF?
- colourclassic, on 07/13/2008, -4/+1YAY for higher taxes!
- AparoidX, on 07/13/2008, -8/+5In San Francisco, phone parks you!
- mikedizz, on 07/13/2008, -3/+0Will it work better than the in store availability checks on target.com?
- archibishop, on 07/13/2008, -4/+1awesome! hopefully other countries soon?
- inactive, on 07/13/2008, -6/+3In other news, driving in San Francisco is retarded.
- burchie2, on 07/13/2008, -6/+1I will never understand how digg's algorithm works...stories making the front page with 60 diggs...?
- qbthemc, on 07/13/2008, -9/+2Apples stock just fell. Sorry Macfanboys.
- jxke, on 07/13/2008, -8/+0what happens when 3 or 4 other people or in this case in san fran maybe 50 people go racing for this one spot that thier phone says is available? id say mass carnage. or a huge accident. or a few people fist fighting in the street over the spot. then a bunch of people auctioning to who will buy to park there.
nice thinking there city council.
