Support Open Government
We should all get behind the idea of ‘Open Government‘.
I thought of this when I read this article. Some of the dudes from EveryBlock are bikers and reporters and advocates for open government data and better bike facilities and better reporting and all sorts of stuff.
And it is really just the larger picture of getting transit agencies to release their schedule data and the like. People want planning reviews posted online. Every agency of government should have an RSS feed with every new posted document. There should be rules in place to specify when documents have to be posted, etc.
Similar terms are ‘Sunshine Laws’ and ‘Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA) Requests‘.
