VIEWS FROM THE FIELD “There are more smart people outside government than within it”

(Bill Joy) “the coolest thing to do with your data will be thought of by

someone else” (Rufus Pollock) “A problem shared is a problem halved ...and a pressure group

created” (Paul Hodgkin – PatientOpinion.com) “it’s about pressure points, chinks in the armour where

improvements might be possible, whether with the consent of government or not” (Tom Steinberg, Mysociety.org)

“many participants in the process dilute the effect of bad apples or unconstructive participants” (Beth Noveck, Peertopatent.org)

WE SHOULD DESIGN GOV 2.0 FOR BART, NOT ONLY FOR LISA

Hat tip: Carter and Dance, Nytimes.com

HOW TO DO IT: INNOVATION WITHOUT PERMISSION Attract and build internal competences Ask for help in the Open Source community Copy and use ready-made tools Valorize risk-taking internally Not completely bottom-up: a design approach Permanent beta, continuous strive for usability
