They’ve launched the latest version of NYCBigApps, called NYC BigApps Ideas, and this one is beautiful in it’s simplicity — all you have to do is write your idea for an app in 140 characters or less. That’s it! The top 25 ideas will be voted on by a group of judges and some of the winning apps might actually be made.
I’ve got a ton of ideas, but here are a few that I entered. If you like them, it would be awesome if you could vote for them on the site!
- An app that has a visual, color coded map of all street parking rules, regulations and street cleaning schedules.
- An app that allows me to instantly log a noise complaint with the city based on my current location.
- An app that shows what NYC looked like in 1940. It would be powered by the 1939-41 Tax Photographs taken of all five boroughs.
- An app that makes sense of NYC schools for parents — locations, when to apply, report cards, class size, waiting lists and specialized curriculums.
- An app that allows kids to voice their opinion with the city on political issues and local matters.
