Recovery LogoThere were lots of complaints that the initial Recovery.Gov website was not very helpful.  That’s changed.  The newly-refreshed website now has lots of new ways of finding and looking at information that is due to pour in next month when the first quarterly reports are due from about 90,000 sources.

Government Executive’s NextGov reporter, Aliya Sternstein provides a good review:



A jam-packed program of more than two-dozen, 5-minute presentations in five categories made for a potentially mind numbing day. Yet the Gov2.0 Expo Showcase, held at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington DC yesterday, was full of poignant, powerful and pithy examples of successful web 2.0 initiatives happening throughout federal, state and local governments.


My colleagues have given me some flak over the fact that many of the visitors to this site will have no idea what "PPP" is in the set of topic selections that you see at the head of this portal.  It's true, not too many people in the US Federal government circles are talking about Public Private Partnership these days.  I think we should be talking more about this.  In fact, I don't think many of the most important issues of our day can be addressed in the absence of rigorous application of global best practices in Public Private Partnership.
