As for #6, external wikis, please visit our wiki for San Francisco homeless resources at http://www.sfhomeless.net, where we are trying to do a better job than the government or private databases can do alone. By turning over responsibility to the community, we can do a much better job at keeping these resources as accurate as possible. Government and private webmasters don’t have the same connection that the people who use the resources have, and therefore new and better ideas are going to come out of the community.

Thanks for your article!

Great blog, thank you for your efforts in leading our city to better communication!

I would love to see you, your staff and the city on Twitter! There is a lot of tech talk that goes on in the ‘twitterverse’ and it would be cool to see government meet tech geek citizens!

Thanks again for making your thoughts and ideas transparent!

Good thinking, but what about use of Web 2.0 to help faciliate emergency notifications, alerts, and warnings by government?
