"ImaginaCity" Open Cities Panel, PDF Europe October 2010
This document discusses how new technologies like social media are reinventing cities and how cities can reinvent technologies to be more open, collaborative, and democratic. It argues that an open, networked approach can stimulate public services, engage citizens, and build social capital. Examples provided include using tools like Ushahidi and OpenStreetMap to enable collective action and civic participation. The importance of social spaces that support collaboration between government and citizens to enable urban innovation is also highlighted.
