Hey Folks,

Open North has a new crowdfunding project on Indigogo for the development of a new free open source platform called MyCityHall.ca.  Open North is a Canadian non-profit that's working hard to empower citizens and is one of the premier open data development shops in the country.  Plus they have been very helpful contributors to OpenDataBC so lets show them some support.

If you have a few minutes check it out here : 


and if you think it's cool, as I do, perhaps make a contribution to the project.  

I really like the idea of funding open source civic apps in this way so I will be watching this intently.  Once it's done, since it'll be free and open source, maybe we can roll the platform out to some of our own cities here!

Thanks,
Herb

Thanks for sharing Herb. Looks like a great innovation for increasing civic engagement: building on local, social and mobile channels and targeting specific assets of the municipal decision making process.


Cheers,
Avi
