Put more money in the meter -- from your cell phone
It's hell, of course, when your meeting is running late and you know your time is running out on the parking meter and fines start at $20 or $30. Now, there's a solution. Use your cell phone to dial up the parking meter and have it charge your credit card an extra 50 cents or so in order to keep the meter maid happy. They're doing this now in Toronto, my friend Tyler Hamilton says. Terrific idea. Anyone else have this fabulous new functionality built in to their meters in other cities?
