  • We’re determined that government websites should be efficient and meet people’s needs - easy to find, easy to use, and fully accessible. And in our relentless drive to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the way we use websites to meet this goal, we have already closed 900 now unnecessary government websites, with plans to close nearly 500 more. And we will set new challenging standards of quality and accountability for government websites - including a requirement that each one allows feedback and engagement with citizens themselves.  From today no new website will be allowed unless it fully meets these requirements.

  • This includes opening more policy development to wider scrutiny, for example through the use of e-petitions and deliberative events
  • Since it was established at the end of 2006, the number 10 e-petitions service has received more than 70 thousand petitions. There have been more than 12 million signatures placed and the Government has replied with more than 8 million e-mail responses. Each week I record a podcast and use twitter most days. Number10.gov.uk carries out daily conversations with more than 1.7 million followers. There have been almost 2 million views of our images on flickr and 4.3 million views of our films and videos on YouTube.

  • ust when politicians thought that they might get some time away from the public gaze, as the electorate grows weary of MPs' expenses, a new watchdog has been born
  • Drawing on the success of political sites such as TheyWorkForYou, Democracy Live will provide a one-stop shop of political videos, with eight video streams to watch – including proceedings from Westminster and Strasbourg, as well as debates taking place in Holyrood, Cardiff and Stormont.
  • The BBC's main political blogs, with contributions from its political editor, Nick Robinson, the Europe editor, Gavin Hewitt, and home editor, Mark Easton, will be featured in a comment section. This will also offer a forum for public figures, starting with an article by the House of Commons Speaker, John Bercow, about how to rebuild trust in parliament

  • hey have added their own new hashtag, #CN4Iran, and even built a new site to support the struggle of the Iranian people, titled CN4Iran.org. Global Voices interviewed one of the cyber activists behind this initiative.
  • Our site was created in Dec 28, 2009, hosted by Dreamhost.com (US). Our objective is to support the Iranian people for liberty and democracy, learn from them and spread the experiences to Chinese people.
  • Our target is the Chinese cyber citizen, firstly the Chinese users on twitter.com, and then other Chinese Internet users who read our information. Also, we infrequently have some worldwide readers, and we tell them the reaction in China (by translating some Chinese news into English)

  • Do you see any similarity between Chinese and Iranian censorship? What about cyber activism? We know that many web sites have been blocked by Iran Regime, which is similar to China. I guess they also have a censor system for keyword filtering, like the Great Firewall (GFW) in China. Such situation is quite common in countries like Iran and China.

No "great Firewall of cambodia" ? Digital democracy emerging in Cambodia - 0 views

  • But the government’s philosophy of not paying much attention or restricting online access stems from the fact that Internet penetration is very low in Cambodia. As per 2007 statistics, only an estimated 0.3 percent of the population is connected to the Internet. This is due to the high cost of Internet connections as well as computer hardware and software that not many can afford. Besides, the level of computer literacy is also very low.
  • So Internet censorship by the government is minimal, as Cambodia’s Internet community is relatively very small and spending on technology does not benefit the government or the majority of the population. Besides, the current level of Cambodia’s technological knowledge is still limited
  • With the government encouraging e-government and e-communication on the Internet, there is hope that there will not be another “great firewall of Cambodia” like China has for filtering Internet content, although the same is practiced by neighboring countries like Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam.

  • La révolution de Vivek Kundra est majeure, et de deux ordres. Premièrement, il considère que la donnée sur l’action publique est un bien public, qui doit être mis à sa disposition, de manière brute.

  • Le volet “participation du public” dans le gouvernement Obama n’est pas celui qu’on a imaginé les années précédentes, et même l’année dernière, au PDF. De fait, c’était décevant. L’amateurisme des équipes d’Obama qui ont testé des logiques de débat et collaboration en ligne contraste énormément avec la vision profonde et révolutionnaire de la stratégie d’information

  • On a peu parlé de la poursuite de la mobilisation militante dans le gouvernement, de la manière dont l’administration Obama tente de poursuivre le mouvement avec Organizing for America. De fait, de ce que j’ai compris des bruits de couloir, l’initiative manque de souffle. On mobilise un peu pour soutenir la réforme du Health Care System, mais l’équipe n’a plus les mêmes moyens, la même connexion, le même but fort et rassembleur.

    La première édition du Personal Democracy Forum Europe, qui se tenait la semaine dernière à Barcelone, était l'occasion d'interroger les rapports entre technologie et politique. Pour Andrew Rasiej et Micah Sifry, les créateurs de la manifestation qui existe depuis plusieurs années aux Etats-Unis, le rôle d'un tel évènement est d'étendre la conversation pour comprendre comment la technologie augmente la politique et renforce la citoyenneté. Aperçu de quelques débats qui ont électrisé l'assistance à l'occasion de cette manifestation…

Obama: Doesn't use Twitter - 0 views

  • Either way, the internet, not to mention Twitter feeds, are abuzz with news that President Obama doesn't use the popular social media application after he admitted to a group of Chinese students in Shanghai that he's "too clumsy to type on the phone". The question came about after he was asked by one of the students, "Should we be able to use Twitter freely?" In a country where the internet is heavily censored and online dissent clamped down upon, it was a critical question for the President. "Well, first of all, let me say that I have never used Twitter. My thumbs are too clumsy to type in things on the phone," Obama replied. (However, it was widely reported that upon entering the White House, the new President refused to give up his Blackberry much to the chagrin of the Secret Service.)
  • But because in the United States, information is free, and I have a lot of critics in the United States who can say all kinds of things about me, I actually think that that makes our democracy stronger and it makes me a better leader because it forces me to hear opinions that I don't want to hear."

    President Obama declared during the campaign that "we are the ones we've been waiting for." That messianic phrase held the promise of a new style of politics in this time of tweets and pokes. But it was vague, a paradigm slipped casually into our drinks. To date, the taste has proven bittersweet.
