Let's conclude that Gov't needs to experiment with Twitter for a while to find out what works best. I just actually just finished a blogpost about best practises how US local governments can use Twitter. Hope this adds to the discussion: http://dotgov.com/2009/11/10-examples-how-local-governments-can-use-twitter/ Mike Great article and presentation.

To get change in a public sector environment you have to focus on the benefits change brings, with real human examples. And then make sure you have the right types of leadership and incentives in place to make it happen. Talking about twitter doesn't really hack it.
