CTO for the USA

Mitch Kapor talks with Technology Review about the need for a CTO for the entire country.

"TR: Why does the country need a CTO?

Kapor: The underlying premise is that tech is inextricably intertwined with virtually everything. You can't talk about homeland security or education or energy without it being in large part a conversation about technology. The president will be well served if policy making is done in a more technologically sophisticated way."
