San Francisco to open 311 to developers
I posted earlier this month that EveryBlock has integrated new open data from the city of San Francisco, and now Mayor Gavin Newsom is giving EveryBlock some props and encouraging other developers to jump on board. The new Open 311 initiative will not only allow developers to access the 311 data, but submit into it, as well.
