Hmm, "crowdsourced governance" is quite a lot more than what is actually proposed, which is more along the lines of "ideation platform" like http://www.mindmixer.com/. Anyhow, I'm not entirely sure I'd leave governance up to the mythologized "wisdom of the crowd".

Re: Connected Citizens?

I actually found a lot of ideas in the connected-citizen.org game video a little disturbing. The "mandatory" or "mandated" citizen bracelet that alerts the authorities that the person had had a heart attack struck me as a ominous vision of the future.

I then tried to play, filled out the form twice, got errors and everything I'd typed up was lost both times - so gave up.
