Abstract

In the Web 2.0 users may freely contribute with information on several topics. Hence, public agencies can take advantage of this fact by creating communication channels with society. This paper presents the SocialSupervisor, a geographically enhanced social content site, where citizens can be notified about public works nearby. Moreover, they are able to post complaints related to any irregularity in public services. Such information forces the government to promote an immediate investigation of the facts.
