We are investigating open government datasets using semantic web technologies.
Description : This demo shows the US Postal Service's financial history by: (i) plotting net income (income - expenses), budget authority (money allocated by Congress) and outlays (actual expenses) on a timeline (ranging from 1976 to 2008), and (ii) annotating the timeline with historical events, dynamically loaded from an RSS feed of articles on this wiki.

This We Know
Loading governmental databases into a single, flexible data store breaks down silos of information and facilitates inferences across multiple data stores. For example, inferences can be made by combining census demographic data from the Agency of Commerce, factory information from the Environmental Protection Agency, information about employment from the Department of Labor, and so on. Our prototype used geography as a lens into the data, but there are multiple useful facets to expose, such as: organizations, issues, and time.

Blog posts about Real GDP (via Google Blog Search) Blog Search is Google search technology focused on blogs. Google is a strong believer in the self-publishing phenomenon represented by blogging, and they hope Blog Search will help their users to explore the blogging universe more effectively, and perhaps inspire many to join the revolution themselves. Their articles are selected and ranked by computers that evaluate, how often and on what sites a story appears online, freshness, location, relevance and diversity. As a result, stories are sorted without regard to political viewpoint or ideology. Whether you're looking for Harry Potter reviews, political commentary, summer salad recipes or anything else, Blog Search enables you to find out what people are saying on any subject of your choice.

The Health Care Lobbyist Complex
The Finance Committee contains a high volume of lawmakers with close ties to the health and insurance industries through both campaign contributions and personal relationships. The visualizations below highlight these influences by mapping former staffers of Finance Committee members who have since become lobbyists for health and insurance interests and showing the number of contributions given to the committee members from these industries. We'll keep updating this page as we post more research and visualizations.
