Hackathon. OER. Open-data. Alan W. Silberberg: Social Media and Gov 2.0 are Contact Sports. Social media is a contact sport. No doubt about it. People get bashed all the time. One only needs to look at the public timelines of Twitter or Facebook to see that. Having said that, specifically Gov 2.0 is a contact sport too. Some people relish this and embrace it like a contact sport. Apply this to customer service and the Government. Social media as a contact sport is played out 24 hours a day, 365 days a year in every country with an Internet presence. But with the explosion of plugins, widgets, cloud computing and other applications, that notion is quaint. We all talk. Having written, spoken and even created a conference around the concept of keeping it simple through language, I look at the progression the Gov 2.0 movement is bringing by way of social media and the 24 hour real time web.
