Is Open Government Dangerously Digital? – Mark Drapeau

by Doug Ward on March 1, 2010

Excellent post by Mark Drapeau – Is Open Government Dangerously Digital?. Mark touches on issues that I’ve also found to be of concern regarding the Open Government Initiative. Namely, it is wonderful to post cool Open Gov widgets, but what is the actual value of such efforts? What is the cost/benefit of these projects? Can you quantify the value of open government projects?

Ultimately these questions need to be addressed if this effort is to amount to more than simple window dressing.
