Ideas
We are using Twitter to collect application ideas (#SoSidea) and discussion points which will feed into our three Urban Innovation Weekends, public presentations, and other events throughout the summer. Submit ideas in the following topics, corresponding to our 3 weekends, and your posts will be displayed in the feed below in real time.
Community Development and Public Art
Sustainability, Transportation, and Energy
Public Health, Food, and Nutrition
The key question:
What projects and applications should be built around urban issues facing San Francisco, and then presented to mayoral candidates for their feedback and support?
