  • Posted HCI 2006 to Blog

  • Posted New Statesman New Media Awards 2006 to Blog
    The Patient Opinion website was 'highly commended' by a panel of industry experts, ruling that Patient Opinion had made an "outstanding contribution to civic society" by providing an engaging and highly usable site where patients can share their stories of the National Health Service, rank the level of medical care they have received, and suggest improvements. Subscribing NHS organisations use the feedback to improve services, benchmark their performance and manage their online reputation. Patient Opinion itself is a not-for-profit social enterprise that makes full use of social software tools and Web 2.0 technologies to make citizen feedback low cost and frictionless.

  • Posted Who best delivers politics? Broadcast, Broadsheet or Broadband? to Blog
    Broadcast, broadsheet or broadband was the subject of last nights rather pedestrian Hansard Society annual debate and to cut straight to the chase everyone more or less agreed that "broadband" was the way forward. Though none of them presented a very sophisticated appreciation of the online world. I was also a little disappointed at the quality of the preparation, apart from Pete Picton (The Sun Online) no one seemed to have taken much time to put together a good argument, they just rocked up and complained randomly around the subject.
  • Posted e-Democracy '05: The characteristics of e-Democracy to Blog
    e-Democracy is an incomplete project based on two other incomplete historical projects, the Internet and Democracy.
    Stephen Coleman's words sum up the entire e-Democracy '05 event. All the attendees and speakers were really enthusiastic about both the Internet and Democracy, no one there was quite sure how to glue them together, but everyone knew that it had to happen. In his introductory speech Coleman introduced what he had identified as four key characteristics of top-down and bottom-up e-Democracy...
