Open government report

Some similar conclusions to ours in the CTPR report released in May.

  • Processes need radical reworking, not extending
  • Culture change is critical

Meeker on mobile

Some great stuff in there, but I can’t help being contrary on the consume and share portrayal of our online usage. Yes, that’s what the iPad engenders, but I don’t think it has to be the way: we create content in emails, SMSes, status updates, photos and videos. It is those that we will consume and share most, making us all creators in some way, shape or form.

Digital engagement strategy for government

Good to see that the digital engagement strategy for government is still part of the coalition. it’s on page 5 (or 6) of the PDF mentioned in an article focusing on skunkworks.

Lane Fox still digital Champion

Lovely reporting by El Reg. Good news that Lane Fox is continuing to lead the good work being done in this area.

Data first, then ask what analysis is needed

Give me less information and more data! Good call from the development aid community (here the World Bank) to get the data out there first and spend less time up front trying to second guess how people might use it and what questions they are going to ask.
