Gov 2.0 Week in Review

,----[ Quote ]
| "The more open a government agency is, the 
| more it seems that the public trusts it," 
| mused Chris Dorobek in his post on public 
| trust and government. If so, the creation 
| of a "right to data" under the "Big 
| Society proposals" from the new United 
| Kingdom government could be significant. 
| For those interested, there's a good 
| overview of European mashups of public 
| data at OurData.eu.

- From Knock-Offs To 'Make-Offs'

,----[ Quote ]
| The NYC Resistor hackerspace gave birth to 
| Makerbot Industries, a company that 
| produces a 3-D printer kit called MakerBot 
| that sells for under $1,000. Featured on 
| the cover of Make Magazine (Volume #21), 
| Bre Pettis and his team used open-source 
| software, the Arduino microcontroller and 
| digital fabrication techniques to create a 
| low-cost competitor to high-end 3-D 
| printers that sell at $20,000 and above.
