What would you create with public information?

Ever been frustrated that you can't find out something that ought to  
be easy to find?  Ever been baffled by league tables or 'performance

The UK Government wants to hear your ideas for new products that could  
improve the way public information is communicated. The Power of  
Information Taskforce is running a competition on the Government's  
behalf, and we have a £20,000 prize fund to develop the best ideas to  
the next level. You can see the type of thing we are are looking for
