Perhaps someone can explain APIs and mashups to him in the event that he wins the Presidency

March 24, 2011 - PRLog -- From UpMyStreet location profiles to Fix My Street streamlined repair requesting to the fantastic prison quality review site Rate My Prison - the possibilities here are huge.

No single organization, perhaps especially government, can rival the imagination and innovation that the public at large can offer - if only the public received the resources that government has at its disposal. Some of these ideas may come in the form of new functionality and knowledge creation, some of them may come in the form of new interfaces. Check out the US nonprofit project OpenCongress.org for one example of a beautiful, cutting edge interface that government itself is unlikely to have ever created for public data (our review).

We hope that a solution to the particular problem of internal combustion automobiles can be found, but we also hope that governments around the world will take inspiration from this UK initiative and dedicate substantial resources to supporting free public use of the data that government has amassed. If data is the new currency, then then public APIs and mashups could be the economic development paradigm of this century.
