Government and It

Bills are crowdsourced already. Lobbyists, lawyers, legislative assistants, and others have their pens out -- and their contributions, unlike Wikipedia editors', go unattributed and unnoticed.

I've tried to look at three separate agencies and look at ways that the government can either provide data or amalgamate it and present it in ways that citizens would find useful.

The achievable goal of G21 policies and practices is to shift information (and thus power) from governments, corporations, and groups, to individuals.

The launch of the iPhone App store--more than the launch of the iPhone itself--could be a demarking point between 20th and 21st century governance.

When I talk to others who work at the intersection of government and the Web, everyone uses the term "Gov 2.0." I've started using the term "G21," which better defines our mission.
