Tim O'Reilly recently hosted a one-hour webcast that took an in-depth look at Gov 2.0 -- what it is, where the opportunities lie, and how you can get involved.
Topics included government efficiency and transparency, government as a platform, and how technologists can play key roles in this important transformation.
Many of the same topics will also be explored at the upcoming Gov 2.0 Expo, and you can read Tim's thoughts on open government at O'Reilly Labs: http://opengovernment.labs.oreilly.com/

This is just ramble- are you serious about how the government bids? You read and ramble, is it true, that you have "volunteers students" what do you call them? and you have sold 5 cities to give your affliated organziation $250k and you send in "free kids " to gather information from the government employees and then you are going to sell the government a program to talk to each other about what you found out" Is it true you have gone to dinner with city officials and recved $250K?

Tim, are you fucking high? Apple was the first company to make an open phone platform? Seriously? Heard of Symbian (Symbian SDK), Windows Mobile?? iphone isn't even an open platform... You can't opensource it, you have to buy a license just to deploy application on the device, you don't with Symbian or WinMo, once again, are you fucking high?
