Gov 2.0 – Code For America: Cities sharing technology resources?
The Gov 2.0 Summit presentations are available on bliptv and worth listening to. Fascinating comments and discussions about government at all levels changing, adopting innovative technologies and re-using / sharing information.
Here are a few highlights:
- Tim O’Reilly’s opening about government participating in Web 2.0, killer apps, Software as a service, “harnessing collective intelligence” … http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BFXxEXH23CE
- Jen Palka with TechWeb to announce a new exciting initiative “Code for America” which is about sharing some of the best “experiments going on locally” and “propagate best local Gov 2.0″ ; based on the notion “What if, instead of reinventing the wheel every time, cities shared technology resources?”
- Andrew McLaughlin, Deputy Chief Technology Officer of the Obama administration, talking about “speeding up government” in the decisions, data it makes available, real time capabilities to data.gov and apps.gov
