city hall didn't do the heavy lifting

city hall didn't do the heavy lifting
web 2.0… is the network as platform, spanning all connected
devices; Web 2.0 applications are those that make the most of the intrinsic advantages of that platform: delivering
software as a continually-updated service that gets better the more people use it, consuming and remixing data from
multiple sources, including individual users, while providing their own data and services in a form that allows
remixing by others, creating network effects through an architecture of participation and going beyond the page
metaphor of Web 1.0 to deliver rich user experiences.
