GovLoop: Innovative Crowdsourcing Technology Use by Government
Innovative Crowdsourcing Technology Use by Government
We invite you to read and respond to the "Innovative Crowdsourcing Technology Use by Government" post on our FastTrack Blog site.
It focuses on a recent article produced by Federal Computer Week called “3 Governing Challenges, 3 Web Solutions“ that talks about two cities and a federal agency that are innovatively using Gov 2.0 technologies to communicate with their constituents in trying times.
One of the cities featured is Santa Cruz, California. They have developed an application using a product called UserVoice to solicit citizen feedback on how to deal with their shrinking revenues. This product also allows citizens to vote on ideas submitted and city representatives to respond to ideas.
We are interested in whether other cities have considered or tried something like this. We look forward to your replies.
