Keith McDonald raises an excellent point in a comment on the previous post. “We are having a real fear on missing an offensive post on a wall for example….Hypotheticaly someone could post something that stays up for a while that we simply miss because we didn’t check it out fast enough or our one FBRead… Read more »
Back in January we ran a competition to send one lucky gov lover to Washington to attend the Politics Online conference. As it turns out, once we’d got everything tied up, it was time for Personal Democracy Forum 2009, so we shifted our plans and I travelled with competition winner Liz Azyan to PDF instead!Read… Read more »
