Public Service: Putting Cognitive Surplus to Work

 
 
 
 
Love it.  In fact, I may be having related conversations with a bunch of folk in and around government at a couple of levels.
 
There's a community, you see, of virtuous schemers committed to this concept of maximizing personal potential, empowered individuals for a stronger society and tech/digital not as a solution, but a platform for engagement.
Now, instead of asking "what if we" why don't we ask "how might we"?
 
There's a science to motivating this kind of work, you see.  Cognitive labour - it's a thing.
