The document discusses how social media and open data can be used to create economic opportunities and engage citizens. It highlights the concept of "cognitive surplus", where people have spare mental capacity that can be used to create new online resources. Examples mentioned include hyperlocal blogging, data projects from BeVocal, and tapping into raw data through initiatives like "Timely Information". The document argues that combining cognitive surplus, open data, and digital tools allows citizens to participate in new ways and supports the growth of the digital economy at a local level.

- I’ve talked before about sharing personal data. This is a snapshot of a reading from my current cost electrivity meter. I was trying to get this data to tweet on its own but it was a little beyond my technical knowledge. Getting the garmin to tweet has been a lot easier.
- Sometimes proprietary solutions are beautiful. After I go for a run I take off my watch, the garmin USB fob detects that my watch is in range and then uploads my data to the Garmin Connect website. Other than the initial set up I don’t need to do a thing.
