Top Gov 2.0 Project

GovLoop is teaming up with O’Reilly Media/UBM TechWeb for a contest to pick the “Top Gov 2.0 Project.” There are hundreds of great projects leveraging Web-based and mobile technology, but some really stand out.

The contest will run for one week (April 16-23) and close at 11:59p GMT.

The top vote-getter receives one (1) complimentary pass to the Gov 2.0 Expo (http://www.gov2expo.com) in Washington, DC on May 25-27, 2010.

    This online crowdsourced international green building competition is a virtual library of visionary submissions on designing buildings that are adaptable, reduce waste, reduce GHG emissions, and create local deconstruction and reuse jobs.

  3. TeamPatent

    TeamPatent is an online collaborative word processor and drawing editor (like Google Docs) to write patent applications and file them with the USPTO. A typical application has several hundred references (figure references, part references, callouts, claim references, and claim terms) and keeping them in sync is currently done manually at great expense. TeamPatent ensures all these requirements are satisfied, saving 4-5 hours of attorney time. The USPTO currently takes three years to review an application; TeamPatent can also be used through examination, streamlining the process.
