The name Parkopedia is a combination of the words parking and encyclopedia (think Wikipedia… but for parking!).

Born out of a frustration of looking for parking, we have set out to map and list every parking space in the world. To date, Parkopedia has grown to cover over 38 million parking spaces in 52 countries around the world thanks to contributions from drivers like you.

* Find parking using your current location or by entering an address

* Get directions straight to the space

* See parking space availability in real-time (where available)

* Find opening hours, up to date prices, payment methods and more

If we don’t have coverage in your area yet, you can email them and they will keep you updated on our progress. You can also easily add a space by uploading a photo of a parking sign or a price list.

Ambulances Interrupting Tunes!

/in , /by

There’s a huge reason not to play music REALLY loud while in your car. That’s not because other people don’t want to hear your music but rather more that you won’t hear the emergency vehicle coming full speed behind you until the last moment.

Well in Sweden you won’t have to worry about that possibility no more. Sweden are testing Ambulances in Stockholm with a system that interrupts in-car audio via the FM transmitter on your car with a voice warning when they’re close by and responding to a crisis. What’s more interesting is that the system is speed sensitive so you’ll recieve notices from greater distances when you’re on the motorway.

Cassette sales increase!

/in , /by

Seem’s as though we all want to live in the past! As we have already said, Vinyl album sales have increased in 2016 but it seems as though another dark ages media has risen from the dead.

Cassette tapes sales grew with an incredible 129,000 copies sold! A 74% increase from 2015 sales. Most of the sales were online with the rest going to small independent retailers.

A few reasons may be because of this, due to Justin Beiber, The Weeknd selling their albums on Cassette tapes and Eminem re-issued The Slim Shady LP cassette selling 3,000 copies. The Guardians of the Galaxy: Awesome Mix Vol. 1 soundtrack was the most popular, having sold about 4,000 copies each in 2016 and 2015.

TV Pirates Beware!

/in , /by

If you’re a pirate you’re about to get caught! ISP’s in Britain including Virgin Media, TalkTalk, Sky and BT are going to be sending letters to the homes of people who pirate things like Tv Shows.

Letters are expected to be posted this week, starting 17th Jan.

Torrent users are expected to be targeted first rather than people who use streaming video services.

All the letter entails is where to get content legally, its part of the Government’s “Get it Right Campaign” and the letter starts off with “Get it Right from a Genuine Site” they got in touch with Metro:

‘Get it Right is a government-backed campaign acting for copyright owners who think their content’s been shared without their permission.

‘It looks like someone has been using your broadband to share copyrighted material (that means things like music, films, sport or books).

‘And as your broadband provider, we have to let you know when this happens.’

However what isn’t known is what happens if people ignore these letters!

What do you think will happen?
