A Rose by Any Other Name

Interesting article by the UK Guardian's Michael Cross, who likes what the Power of Information Review is trying to do in terms of empowering people by opening up public data, but seems to dislike the label "Government 2.0". Oddly, though almost any label quickly loses its appeal - who doesn't groan at the label "Web 2.0" these days? - but you still need to use the label. Maybe he should just switch to talking about the Connected Republic?
