I often perceive a belief among public servants that the government’s authoritative status grants it automatic authority and trustworthiness. It’s a feeble assumption and likely to become more feeble as emergent technologies continue to reveal the wisdom of crowds.

This idea that government agencies are “inherently” authoritative may be what blocks the flow of data from citizens to the government.

By: Chris Parente

Andrea — good piece. No question the flow has to be two way. First step was for government to get much better at making the right information very easy for citizens to find/access. Call that Gov’t 1.5. Next step is engaged citizens impacting their government. It will become apparent quicker i think at local/municipal level.

“A prediction we are about to publish says that by 2012 up to one in five government processes will be based on crowdsourced (i.e. external) data.”

Does that statement imply that 20% of external data will be crowdsourced? If so – I agree that it has that potential.

I think it doubly true of local administrations.

In fact crowdsourced information coming into gov could be the driver for new processes, or at least processes which move down the administrative tree and end up being managed by those closer (or closest) to the public e.g. into local government.

I am not saying that local government is any more capable than central government, god forbid – neither will be able carry it off, IMO.

I am also starting to get the feeling that movements such as hyperlocal websites, and other social web “input devices” (lets call them) could become the natural place for the harvesting of such incoming data.

The pivot points will likely include :

Officials being capable of identifying anomalies amongst incoming data steams and not seeing them as problems, but opportunities.

Administrators being bold enough to stick their necks out and join up with the likes of the social web to act as their proxies.

Reading and "old" article on #ogov: Fighting Assymetry of Gov 2.0, very good! http://bit.ly/cYI13A

@miakgarlick But they are related: see diagram in http://bit.ly/8nnM9U as well as arguments in http://bit.ly/3TRpRA and http://bit.ly/cLo4MN
