TSA has a blog? I still resent feeling that criminal is the default setting for american travel, but perhaps I could learn something about why this continues to be?

government 2.0

Posted by Jami on February 14, 2008

I’ve been at an EPA conference for their web work group all week – a central focus of which has been Web 2.0 technologies… They’re trying to figure if/how to leverage some of these technologies to help them achieve their Agency’s mission.

Lots of things to think about when applying participatory tech. in a government environment, but there are some places that are forging ahead… Who knew?

I just found this really cool list of government offices/agencies/departments that are blogging. Check out Flow of the River, the blog of Marcus Peacock, EPA’s Deputy Administrator.

Other cool government, participatory presences on the web:

NASA on YouTube

NOAA in Second Life

LOC on Flickr

Very interesting ways to participate with government resources and information. More are on the way, I’m sure… (although I am NOT speaking for/about EPA as I truly have no idea what they have planned or if they are going to be doing anything. disclaimer, disclaimer, disclaimer).
