Government Online - Aaron Smith, Pew Internet (Apr 27)
In the United States governments are making data more available, and the public is using it.
"The report also finds that 31% of online adults have used social tools such as blogs, social networking sites, and online video as well as email and text alerts to keep informed about government activities. "
Would be nice to know what is happening in Canada. We don't have anything like Data.gov to help us find government materials. My guess is that Statistics Canada is the most progressive in using social tools.
