Towards the end of the dotcom crash we had many startups with iterations of
this notion. One of the most ambitious was MicroStrategy, which had notions
of enabling local governments with such capabilities for various services

there, but going more deeply into it would get us more into the off-topic
terrain that we are in. :-)
