		<title>DirectGov rebooted?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last week, the new Government announced that DirectGov would be moving from DWP to the Cabinet Office. And, related, Martha Lane Fox would be taking over responsibility for it.
I&#8217;ve long been poking fun at DirectGov, and varing from critical to utterly scathing. However, with new political overlords, with new management, and a new basis, there&#8217;s ]]></description>

		<title>ORGcon</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday was ORGcon, the first annual conference of the Open Rights Group with whom I&#8217;ve worked since before they actually existed (they started to be formed at OpenTech in 2005).
It was a successful day, not just because of the sessions, but because of the conversations. ORGcon was a gathering of most of the most politically ]]></description>

		<title>post-Shirky</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The last post ended abruptly and somewhat unedited when I read clay Shirky&#8217;s new book and it changed and connected various things that I had previously not.
Paul Hawken&#8217;s book Blessed Unrest, and the associated website WiserEarth.org, talks about how all NGOs are at some level connected, and on some level don&#8217;t contradict each other. Child ]]></description>

		<title>Community Cost of TV Adverts</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Cognitive Surplus is mostly a guided instructional tour on the potential of what could happen if 99% of TV watching didn&#8217;t change. The entire of wikipedia has taken the cognitive load that is spent in the US, in one weekend, watching adverts on TV (roughly 20% of airtime). If 99% of TV doesn&#8217;t change, then 1% does; that is 10 wikipedia ]]></description>

		<title>iPad and the internationalisation of ideas.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve never watched a huge amount of TV. I&#8217;ve never really been able to explain why, it&#8217;s just something I&#8217;ve never really done. But Clay Shirky&#8217;s explanation in this talk really resonates (talk posted by Jeremy Zawodny); I tend to want to play with the mouse.

I completely missed the music download arguments of the last decade; at ]]></description>

		<title>Two weeks with the iPad</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My  iPad is now a fortnight old. Having taken it to a few meetings with electronic notes or with agenda and reference documents, it does make finding things a lot easier. Its also works for handing meeting notes or reference material. Where someone is talking about a document they don&#8217;t have in front of them, ]]></description>

		<title>Another day with my iPad</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A day after my last iPad mumblings, here are some more.
In a lazy day yesterday, i downloaded and read a couple of short books that have been on the to-read pile for a while. O&#8217;Reilly have a nice programme where if you register books you&#8217;ve bought from them, they&#8217;ll sell you an ebook version for ]]></description>

		<title>A couple of days with my iPad</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I wandered along to the apple store before work on Friday, queued for half an hour, and wandered out with a 32Gb 3G iPad. 3G because, while I&#8217;m often near wifi, I&#8217;m away from it often enough that not having it is likely to be an issue at the time that it&#8217;s most useful.

		<title>Lookin at the horizon while dancing in the fire</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In the next day, many people will abruptly stop the projects they&#8217;re been working on for the election. On Friday, we likely find out who our new Government will be, or possibly just start to sleep for a month.
Early next week, people will be given new jobs by the Government, either new or reshuffled. And ]]></description>

		<title>chatroulette&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Updated to correct youtube link.
What would a &#8220;ChatRoulette&#8221; clone for politics be like? So people get to talk to people on the issue  (e.g. digital economy bill in the UK, or health care in the US, or the UK election) without self-separating based on self interests? Would it work in all or just some types? ]]></description>
