Networked Governance [View as PDF]

Written by Alissa Kelman, Jordan Mamorsky, Ryan Steinman, Paul Volodarsky

Agency rulemaking and its electronic portal, regulations.gov, have been recognized as an area in which reform could be particularly beneficial. The same type of technology that is used by popular social networking sites, such as Facebook, MixedInk, Digg, and LinkedIn, can be used by the public to develop ideas and harness distributed knowledge by encouraging users to collaborate on comments to be submitted to agencies. This proposal identifies a specific design solution for e-rulemaking, my.regualtions.gov, which uses these colloborative and interactive networking technologies to improve upon the current e-rulemaking platform.
