You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can vote and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can vote on it.

      • NYC OpenData

        New York City launched NYC OpenData (http://www.nyc.gov/opendata) in October 2011, which currently features nearly 850 API-enabled datasets. The possibilities are limitless for developers to create and innovate to help New Yorkers live more intelligent, efficient and informed lives by integrating OpenData into apps and websites.

        The NYC BigApps (http://2011.nycbigapps.com/) competition challenges developers to innovate using NYC OpenData. Winning apps can be found at http://on.nyc.gov/nycappspage.

        NYC has also created a Tumblr to showcase visualizations derived from NYC OpenData that New Yorkers will find interesting, compelling and thought-provoking at http://nycopendata.tumblr.com.
