Transparency and Open Government

,----[ Quote ]
| One of the first documents our new President signed within his first day in 
| office is this memorandum on Transparency and Open Government.  It is a memo 
| that I am personally very happy to see, not only because I agree so strongly 
| with its content.  For the last couple of months I have been a member of the 
| Technology, Innovation & Government Reform (TIGR) transition policy group 
| focusing on innovation and government.  This Presidential memo covers 
| precisely the area that we worked on.

Washington DC latest to drop Microsoft for web apps

,----[ Quote ]
| Washington D.C. has joined 500,000+ businesses and organizations in moving
| its communication and productivity tools into the cloud. Vivek Kundra, CTO
| for the District, signed an agreement with Google to migrate the
| organization's 38,000 employees to Google Apps, the search giant's web-based
| offering of communication and productivity tools. Washington D.C. is a
| not-insignificant win for Google, and yet another blow to Microsoft's
| incumbent Office suite, as a surge of web apps steadily replaces their
| desktop counterparts.
