Just posted to Blog Talk Radio’s site:

BlogTalkRadio is pleased to bring Government 2.0 to our listeners. The first episode, airing Sunday, March 22 at 5:00 EDT, features Award-Winning GovLoop founder Steve Ressler and Steve Lunceford of GovTwit and BearingPoint. The pair will be in conversation with O’Reilly Media’s Tim O’Reilly.

Adriel Hampton will be hosting, with special guests Sally Lieber, three-term Assemblywoman from Silicon Valley, and Michael Russell [me] on DC’s upcoming Gov 2.0 Camp. As always, an interactive experience is to be expected with Tim O’Reilly answering listener phone calls.

I’m honored to have the opportunity to participate in this podcast summit. More after the show this afternoon… here’s the link to the page. Or, just play directly from the embedded link below:

Transparency Camp 2009: The Videos

March 8th, 2009 | No Comments | Posted in Social Media, Society

We came. We saw. We fought for parking spaces…and bagels.

Ten days after having had the opportunity to participate in Transparency Camp 2009 in Washington DC, videos of this remarkable event are now online.

Here’s the trailer, produced by the Sunlight Foundation, which should give you a taste of the excitement and enthusiasm that accompanied this first-of-its-kind unconference or barcamp that brought together a diverse and remarkable collection of government employees, technologists, policy wonks and just-plain-regular folks —all passionately committed to accountable, open and, yes, transparent government that responds to citizens, and provides open access to its vast stores of data.


You can watch the rest of the videos, featuring Craig Newmark, Tim O’Reilly, Micah Sifry and many more big-brained, big-hearted folks here.

More to come…
