  • The UK's political parties have not embraced social media as they were expected to do before the upcoming May elections, concludes research carried out by analysts at Ovum, a consultancy

  • "The UK has its own idiosyncrasies and we must not lose sight [of the fact] that many social media platforms have not been adopted by all ages and classes in society," the analyst added.
  • "The vast majority of MEPs are using the Internet and are certainly being inspired by the success that Barack Obama has had, but too many of them still believe that digital tools are less effective than traditional forms of communication, such as television and newspapers," said James Stevens, senior vice-president for digital services at the consultancy.

    Interesting data on how and why British politicians are slow in the use of social media for political campaigning. They still trust other more traditional channels. Interesting data: Europeans are lagging behind American policy makers in their use of Twitter and other means of digital communication. Might the higher age average of European citizens have something to do with it?

    n remarks at a news conference Thursday, Clinton said the United States will hold talks with the United Arab Emirates over its decision to suspend some BlackBerry services due to security concerns. "We are taking time to consult and analyze the full the range of interests and issues at stake because we know that there is a legitimate security concern," she said. "But there is also a legitimate right of free use and access. So I think we will be pursuing both technical and expert discussions as we go forward."

    As per DeNardis, the first question is who is the board, then what are their interests, how are they funded, who do they represent, by what process are decisions made and implemented, are objections public etc. If, as the press release suggests, this is the first of many more simple and stringent security and safety features, then what are they and who decides? "The Facebook Safety Advisory Board comprises five leading Internet safety organizations from North America and Europe that serve in a consultative capacity to the company on issues related to online safety. The organizations on the board are Common Sense Media, ConnectSafely, WiredSafety, Childnet International and The Family Online Safety Institute (FOSI). "

    Yes, I know you love this - we all do. The regulations have been released! We'll never know if they are a best-seller, as they are free for download by anyone (a little ironic, actually), but the Ofcom, the ACMA of the UK, has released the regulations for the Digital Economies Act. What this does is fills in the details of what the ISPs will be doing exactly, what the processes will be - basically just the fussy details that are too specific for an act. Also, it will have information that may need to be updated regularly (like lists of prohibited sites).

  • The shocking vandalism of tribute Facebook pages for slain Australian children could have been avoided if only users, not Facebook, put more effort into policing the site, the internet industry says.
  • The incidents led Prime Minister Kevin Rudd to say he was considering appointing an online ombudsman to deal with social networking issues.
  • "The overriding view is that users are not utilising the safety tools that these sites provide, and that was in large part the cause of these recent problems," he said in an interview.

  • "All of the social networking sites need to make safety a stronger and clearer priority than it is and that includes more adequate resourcing," said Nockles, who is now a cyber safety consultant and vice-president of global net safety group I-SAFE.
