govfresh failed business model opendata

  • this has been a civic adventure driven by pure patriotic adrenaline
  • passionate, patriotic group of people I’m proud to now call friends
  • Over the past few months, I’ve tried to work on establishing a sustainable business model, but the challenge around building an immediate solid foundation has turned into a case of ‘too little, too late.’
  • Johann Höchtl on 19 Nov 10
     
    GovFresh went awry and failed to establish a business model. Interessante Aussagen: passionate, patriotic aber kein Business Modell. Wo ist der Unterschied zu eg. Open Source? * Open Source "erzeugt" ein Produkt, das in der digitalen Welt "gehandelt" werden kann, eine digitale Plattform ohne digitale Produkte mit EndanwenderInnennutzen hat diese Eigenschaft nicht * Open Source communities sind erfolgreich, wenn sie Probleme in sehr kleine Einheiten brechen können. Damit steht potentiell vielen peers "Mitmachen" offen. Open Data erfordert ein skill level, das von nicht-Technikern schwer aufzubringen sein wird, macht damit jene, die sich nicht beteiligen und "credit" geben, zu Trittbrettfahrern

  • How, then, does the public get access to data, and ideally, to raw data streams?
  • Using force, by changing the laws or creating new regulations
  • Using intimidation, by enlisting the news media to pressure the agency
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • By creating value for agencies to entice them to share the data.
  • So what, exactly, is public data? Is crime data actually public data, and do agencies have to provide it? If so, why don’t they provide it as a raw data feed? The answer is this: while crime data concerns the general public, it is not exactly public data per se

  • You can build it but they won’t come. All successful open source projects build communities of supportive engaged developers who identify with the project and keep it productive and useful.
  • Ongoing maintenance and distribution of the data hasn’t been budgeted for almost all the data sets we have today. This attitude has to change, and new projects give us the chance to get it right, but most existing datasets are unfunded for maintenance and release.
  • there are at least five different types of Open Data groupie: low-polling governments who want to see a PR win from opening their data, transparency advocates who want a more efficient and honest government, citizen advocates who want services and information to make their lives better, open advocates who believe that governments act for the people therefore government data should be available for free to the people, and wonks who are hoping that releasing datasets of public toilets will deliver the same economic benefits to the country as did opening the TIGER geo/census dataset.

US privacy track habits nytimes internet policy

shared by Johann Höchtl on 10 Nov 10 - No Cached
  • privacy advocates are pushing for a similar “do not track” feature that would let Internet users tell Web sites to stop surreptitiously tracking their online habits and collecting clues about age, salary, health, location and leisure activities.
  • Consumer advocates worry that the competing agendas of economic policy makers in the Obama administration, who want uniform international standards, and federal regulators, who are trying to balance consumer protection and commercial rights, will neglect the interests of people most affected by the privacy policies.
  • In the 1990s, the Commerce Department had an extremely prominent role in developing what we think of as Internet policy, and we are reinvigorating that historical role

  • f you’re not embarrassed when you ship your first version you waited too long
  • You think your business is different, that you’re only going to have one shot at press and everything needs to be perfect for when Techcrunch brings the world to your door. But if you only have one shot at getting an audience, you’re doing it wrong.
  • In that short rapid iteration environment the most important thing isn’t necessarily how perfect code is when you send it out, but how quickly you can revert if you need to so the cost of a mistake is really low, under a minute of brokenness.

    Someone can go from idea to working code to production and more importantly real users in just a few minutes and I can't imagine any better form of testing.
