From: Steven Clift <[email protected]> I am meeting with legislators in Minnesota next week and I'd like to print a small collection of extremely high level and concise introductory documents explaining:
1. Open Government 2. Civic Technology 3. Open Data 4. Civic Hackathons I realize there are many views on scope of "open government" - http://thegovlab.org/open-government-whats-in-a-name/ but my main interest are simple documents that explain the public and social benefits. In short, why should a state government invest in the spread of these concepts statewide across multiple communities (not just a state government agencies first perspective) like they would in "economic development" for example. Suggestions?
