We’re celebrating that MisParadas.com a web app created by our favorite developer, Sam Lown, and Vostok’s own Mark MacKay, came in second. The team was granted a prize of  2,000 euros. Not bad for a 48-hour hackathon ;)  The winner, Infocarretera.com, an app to keep track of traffic incidents in the Basque Country, received 3,000 euros. Congratulations to them!

MisParadas.com tells you, for any given bus stop, at what time the next bus will arrive. It was developed by  Sam LownFernando BlatChristos Zisopoulos, and Mark MacKay for AbreDatos.

    Wepage is really great!!!. Maybe some kind of widget or addon for firefox to query the bus stops would be better that a URL added to favorites…
