<nettime> Blogpost: Wikileaks, Open Information and Effective Use: Exploring the Limits of Open Government

["Michael Gurstein" <gurstein@gmail.com>]

I've done a bit of a think piece on the significance of WikiLeaks for open
government and community informatics (a rather closer connection than might
first be expected!) -- in part riffing on an interesting interview with
Birgitta Jonsdottir formerly a WikiLeaks insider.

Comments are appreciated.

Best for the season,
