Cool Uses of Government Data - Apps for America

Cool (and very useful) mashups using U.S. government federal and state data. Share these apps with a friend. (-:

1) DataMasher
Easily and quickly mashup data from various states. Amazing.

2) GovPulse
This will make the Federal Register so much easier to access and use.

The Federal Register is the official journal of the federal government of the United States. In it, you’ll find any kind of proposal, notification, or solicitation for data that a federal agency puts out. It’s the pulse of your government.

For much of its existence the Federal Register has had no easily accessible form. govpulse seeks to change this and enable you to respond to your government. We give you a way to browse the Register (from 1994 on) and use filters to decide what is important to you. And then act on it.

3) ThisWeKnow

Provide citizens with a single destination where they can explore all the information from the Data.gov catalog.
