How Tim O'Reilly Aims to Change Government

"Some people go to Washington to try to make the government more honest;
others try to make it smaller," writes Marshall Kirkpatrick for
ReadWriteWeb. "Technologist Tim O'Reilly is spending time in Washington,
and bringing Washington officials to San Francisco, to do something
different - perhaps something more realistic. O'Reilly is trying to help
government become a platform for innovation. A "government as platform"
would supply raw digital data and other forms of support for private
sector innovators to build on top of." Read more about Tim's ideas for
transforming government.
