FCC to Call for Government Data Overhaul
,----[ Quote ]
| The Federal Communications Commission
| outlined more details of the comprehensive
| broadband plan it plans to deliver to
| Congress later this month, laying out a
| series of recommendations for using Web-
| based technology to drive civic engagement
| with the government.
|
| The commission will call on all branches
| of government to continue the early
| efforts underway in the executive branch
| to bring more data online, and urge
| government officials to accelerate the use
| of social media tools to engage the
| public, Eugene Huang, the director of
| government operations at the FCC's
| broadband task force said on Monday.

The open society
,----[ Quote ]
| America is in the lead on data access. On
| his first full day in office Barack Obama
| issued a presidential memorandum ordering
| the heads of federal agencies to make
| available as much information as possible,
| urging them to act âwith a clear
| presumption: in the face of doubt, openness
| prevailsâ. This was all the more remarkable
| since the Bush administration had explicitly
| instructed agencies to do the opposite.
