EGovBarCamp

Page history last edited by PBworks 15 years, 11 months ago

BarCamp is an ad-hoc gathering born from the desire for people to share and learn in an open environment. It is an intense event with discussions, demos, and interaction from attendees.

 

For this one we wanted to focus a bit on egov problems and more importantly solutions and just to see what is going on in the boston/ny area.

HOUSING RELATED:

Is anyone developing eGov tools to monitor the housing bubble and fall-out from the subprime crisis? Why should housing be an eGov priority, both from public policy and private perspectives? See second most read BusinessWeek article (1/31/08):

 

Housing Meltdown: Why home prices could drop 25% more on average before the market finally hits bottom

 

Critt, is there a way to revive this "Real Estate Bubble Map" or build another tool to protect home buyers using Grazr widget? http://realestatebubblemap.pbwiki.com wino kredyt mieszkaniowy sprzedam mieszkanie sprzedam bilet
