We can learn so many things from these social platforms like Flickr or del.icio.us, etc. We are just exploring the tip of the iceberg. For instance, I remember another post by Fabien on heatmaps on Google Maps. In the example the authors provided an heatmap of the traffic congestion. The same technique can be used for instance to see which tiles are downloaded more frequently from GMaps or Microsoft Live. These information can have a tremendous value for Urban Planners, but I still have to find a good example of how such information has been set into practice and solution.

I have done a post http://ic-pod.typepad.com/design_at_the_edge/ on "Linking bits of knowledge-Creative Hotspots-Barcelona-@22 project". It struck me that we have an almost instant feedback possibility to help steer the emergent behaviour of creative district initiatives across the globe!
