Spotscout - Boston, MA
By Rob | June 6, 2007
The web is flooded with useful resources and SpotScout is one of them, dedicated towards offering innovative solutions to daily life problems with an aim to make life easier for everyone. One of the biggest problems we face today is the difficulty in finding parking space and SpotScout. That’s the pain that Spotscout is trying to solve.
SpotScout is an innovative internet-based market for parking information catering to Garages & Parking Lots, Private Residential Spots and On-Street Spots. Currently, SpotScout is testing the waters with Boston, New York, and San Francisco and has plans to launch nationwide in the near future.
Here’s how it works – SpotScout works on the following concepts –
• Parking space seekers should be able to access timely and correct information about actual space availability before they reach their destination.
• People who are leaving and vacating a parking spot can inform others that a space will be available.
Hence, you can be a SpotCaster as well as a SpotScout -
SpotScout – As a SpotScout, you can seek information on parking availability which can be accessed from any web-enabled cell phone, blackberry, PDA, or computer.
SpotCaster – As a SpotCaster, you can be an individual or an institution and use this web based network to broadcast information about parking availability.
Individual SpotCasters can either own (or lease) a private space, or plan to depart from a public space at a specific time. Institutional SpotCasters (garage/parking lots) own and professionally manage a number of parking spaces.
