Transparency and openness in government are two goals the Obama Administration wants to meet by using technology. Aneesh Chopra, the first Federal Chief Technology Officer, is challenging agencies to open their minds to using IT in new ways.

He's also laying the groundwork for the release of the new Open Government Directive. On today's program, he talks about the three themes he's pursuing in putting the Directive together.

He also talks about some of the ways that using technology will empower agencies to democratize data, and serve citizens in new ways.
