Great overview of how different cities around the world are 'smart'.
Also an interesting take on how to develop smart cities, using design as the main driver: Ultimately, though, it's not enough for a city just to have "smart" technologies.

"Technology will just extend and support human sensors." 2016, then, will not just be the year of smart, but of transhuman cities.
