Matter of Opinion

Open government. You interested?

Transparency presumes that the public cares enough to check in and evaluate. As I look over the new OMB site set up by the Obama administration, I wonder how many people will actually belly up and drink in the data. In any event, here's some leisure reading for you.

Do you appreciate these efforts or is it just a smokescreen?
