It’s already happening.  You see it when citizens report potholes, broken signs, graffiti or nuisances using 311 apps.  You see it with hackathons, the open data movement, and with organizations like Code for America and Tumml brokering innovation by bringing together developers and government agencies.  There’s a palpable energy driven by technological innovations, heightened expectations, and the diverse needs of governments and…
