  Periodically the IBM Center staff steps back and reflects on the insights provided by its authors of more than 300 research reports and by some 300 senior government executives interviewed over the past 13 years.  Through our research and interviews, we identified several broad societal trends that we believe are changing the game for successful leadership at all levels of government.

How Federal Agencies Can Effectively Manage Records Created Using New Social Media Tools

Thursday, October 28th, 2010 - 12:29
Author(s): 
Dr. Patricia C. Franks, CRM
To date, federal agencies have largely been on their own in terms of how to manage records created via social media tools.  This historically decentralized approach has resulted in some agencies banning the use of social media while other agencies have rapidly adopted their use but ignored the potential records management implications.  The National Archives and Records Administration released a bulletin on managing social media records at the same time this report was released.  It offered some “guidance to Federal agencies, who must then determine the most appropriate ways

The Gulf BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico has spawned more than oil. There are all sorts of efforts to track what is going on, from the Coast Guard, to NASA, to the Weather Service.  These efforts are from the beaches to the skies to under the ocean.

Virtual USA and Web 2.0

Friday, March 19th, 2010 - 21:42
I’ve seen a number of intersting mapping applications being developed “on the ground” that engage citizens in a collaborative efforts to provide details about their communities.  The most common of these is OpenStreetMap.org, which advertises itself as an editable map of the world.

Virtual USA and OpenStreetMap are very different things. OpenStreetMap isn't just about merging together data, it's about community engagement and citizen participation in creating and maintaining their own local data. OpenStreetMap is global and allows anyone to freely contribute, edit, update and use the geographic data.

The Virtual USA projects, while valuable, are more about building "common operating pictures" and possibly sharing out the data, although I haven't seen this happen yet.

The USGS National Map is another example of aggregating and pulling together information that has actually talked about exactly this idea of using citizen mapping and data creation as a way to have the entire nation help maintain the national map. http://cegis.usgs.gov/vgi/

Agreed! Virtual USA is developed and used by government agencies (as I understand it) and OpenStreetMap is developed and used by everyone. . . but for different levels of government and different agencies to collaborate and share information, well, that's revolutionary on its own!

Thanks for sharing the USGS link. Hadn't seen it before.

Topic 4: Technology, Transparency, and Participatory Democracy

Friday, February 26th, 2010 - 17:36
President Obama issued a memorandum on Transparency and Open Government following his inauguration in early 2009.  The memo outlined his commitment to greater transparency, increased citizen participation, and more collaboration.  This commitment acknowledges that government cannot solve by itself the challenges facing our nation.
