Rorschach

I made much the same suggestion to a few watchdog group members here in the Houston area. I suggested that perhaps one of the search engine companies might be interested in running such a database such as Google. A legislative carrot should be part of it to encourage public entities to participate. Such as freedom to ignore FIOA requests for any documentation that has already been supplied to the search engine company and a requirement to supply any information not supplied to the search engine to all requesters for free. In return, entities would get a few cents per viewing of their documents. The search engine co could run ads along side the data in order to recoup their costs much the way the search engine business model operates now.
