OMB Watch today published an in-depth analysis of the Obama administration's progress on a wide-ranging set of open government recommendations. The recommendations were crafted by a diverse group of organizations and individuals as part of the 21st Century Right to Know Project, which was coordinated by OMB Watch in 2007 and 2008. The full analysis is available here: http://www.ombwatch.org/21strtkrecsassessment Here's an excerpt: "The Obama administration has shown exceptional enthusiasm in using Internet technologies to communicate with the public. The administration and agencies have unveiled myriad new or improved websites to expand access to government information, with more currently under development. These sites have emphasized engaging interfaces underpinned by open technologies. Agencies have expanded online opportunities for public participation and have grown significantly bolder in their use of social media such as Twitter and Facebook, buttressed by new policy guidance to clarify their responsibilities in online environments." -- Gavin Baker
