[open-government] Literature on open government data

Tue Jun 15 11:04:51 UTC 2010

Hey Toni, Josh

Zotero seems like a good way to capture articles and then feed them into the
Open Gov Data site (possible to get feeds / data out of a Zotero group quite
easily & for users it makes it really easy to clip literature from the web
as and when it's found rather than needing to go and edit a wiki) - either
in place or or alongside a manual bibliography...

Toni: I've just joined the Zotero group - and happy to add in some of the
relevant articles I've got collected if you want (I think I need edit privs
granted for that...)

All the best

Tim
