I’m about to change roles and going to work in a role, in an organisation, where working in the open will once again be possible. So I’m going to use this old space to do that. Probably need to do a bit of spring cleaning and maybe a bit of decorating but let’s just see how it goes.

Nothing to see here, I’m just taking the opportunity to refresh this site a little. I’ve had it in mind to update the site for a while since I noticed how many templates wordpress.com now offers.

I’ve also just finished building a hosted wordpress site (of which more shortly) so I thought it was time to pay some attention to my own site.

Anyway, that’s all for now. Does this represent a thaw in the lack of activity here?

Possibly.

But I’ve said that before haven’t I….

I honestly thought we might not bother with informal meet-ups over the summer as many civil servants are off with school holidays and recess.

But I’m told there’s a fair few people planning to come along tomorrow (Thursday 7th) so if you fancy having a chat with other people interested in all things government web, then pop over to Cafe Zest – 2nd floor in House of Fraser Victoria Street – some time between 2pm and 4pm tomorrow.

It would be great to see you there.

At the web2.0strategies conference

I’ve been speaking here today as part of a panel discussion on innovation in the workplace.

One observation – the sheer number of laptops and iphones being used during the sessions.

These aren’t people coming to learn about web2.0 / social media, these are people who do it already and are trying to work out how to do it better within their organisations.
