I've always found it very annoying how difficult it is to find a parking space sometimes. If you're not in the right place at the right time, you're left to park blocks away which inevitably makes you wonder why you drove in the first place.

I know what yo mean. Living in the big city has it good points and its bad ones. Parking is definately a downfall of a big city. If parking is free you can never find a parking spot close to where you are going and if you have to pay, then it is a rediculous amount.

Let's face it, parking shouldn't be as time consuming as it is. I want to be able to go to a location and immediately find a parking spot. The issue is not distance, but availability. I have no way of knowing where there might be an open parking spot within a reasonable distance from the location I am going to. I imagine I could be notified via cell phone or GPS system after I enter the parking area. I could even be notified and pay the meter via the cell phone. That would definitely make parking a bit less stressful.
