theexpiredmeter.com

This site is example of how 1 person turned a passion into a policy advocacy juggernaut. http://theexpiredmeter.com/ (via shareaholic)


Tonight, the guy who started this was on several Chicago news shows talking about how Chicago lost over $400 million because of its' hastily conceived sale of Chicago's parking meters for $1 billion for the next 75 years. He started this site to share his expertise contesting parking tickets and has become one of the most quoted sources regarding all things parking meter related, in Chicago. The lesson is if you truly love/know something the internet can make you a star.
