                              Last week, I jumped into my new role as <a href="http://www.w3.org/2007/eGov/IG/wiki/Main_Page">eGovernment</a> lead by attending a pair of gatherings in Washington.   They left me pleasantly shocked at the enthusiasm in the US Government for both social software and open data, and wondering how best to proceed.  I expect the eGov Interest Group (if re-chartered; AC reps please <a href="http://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/33280/eGov2/">vote</a>) will figure this out as a group in the coming months, but for now I've tried to get my thoughts written down in a post (on my own blog) titled <a href="http://decentralyze.com/2009/09/11/linked-government-data/">Linked Government Data</a>.
