Cities @ Crossroads: Digital Technology and Local Democracy (Law - Download) Interdisciplinary Center (IDC), Herzliyah, IsraelMarch 9, 2011 Brooklyn Law Review, Vol. 76, No. 4, 2011 Boston Univ.
School of Law Working Paper No. 11-11 Abstract: The transformative potential of digital technology for democratic governance is hardly questioned, but has not yet been tackled by legal scholarship. The Article starts filling this gap by exploring the role and functions of digital technology in local governance. The Article situates the relations between cities and citizens along two complementary axes - consumerism, in which citizens are regarded as consumers of services provided by the city; and participation, in which citizens play an active role in local decision-making and agenda-setting.
The Article then argues that while American cities reasonably satisfy consumerist, service-provision requirements, they fail to benefit from the participatory potential of digital technology.

Much has been said over the past few years about the future of publishing and content on the web.
Terms like “transmedia storytelling” and “cross-platform publishing” are tossed around like giant balls of cotton candy — delicious, fluffy but, ultimately, without much substance. And while certain platforms have made multimedia storytelling possible for publishers and visual artists, none offers a truly holistic proposition. This week, the launch of projeqt offers hope for a platform that does it all and then some. Great stories keep us riveted to the page. We’re thrilled about the creative possibilities with projeqt. Though projeqt is currently in beta and invite-only, we’ve secured a limited number of invites for our newsletter readers — to request one, subscribe to our free weekly newsletter if you haven’t already, then shoot us an email with “projeqt” in the subject line.

Gareth Malone has proved that boys can sing, take pride in it, and perform at the Royal Albert Hall.
But can singing lift the spirits of an entire community? South Oxhey is a sprawling housing estate, just outside Watford. Now home to over 12,000 people it was built after World War Two to provide housing for working-class Londoners who'd lost their homes during the Blitz. When Gareth arrives, South Oxhey has no tradition of singing beyond pub karaoke, but Gareth makes it his mission to turn the area into a centre of choral excellence. He wants to draw in people from every section of the community, from children to OAPs, and create one vast choir that will truly represent South Oxhey and at last give the area a voice. This time, Gareth faces a new set of challenges. South Oxhey's Legacy After the cameras stopped rolling, the show was not over!
