eGov - Information policies

["David RR Webber" <david@drrw.info>]

An interesting article: -

The UN work in this area that we previously noted

certainly helps provide baselines for people and

their governments.

 

A rule of thumb where information that directly

relates to yourself should be assessible.

 

I continue to be frustrated by how easily Osama

Bin Laden scores wins without ever having to try -

watching people shoot themselves in the foot

worrying about maybes that will never happen

and reacting in ways that harm themselves.

 

Day after day we are adding to the cost in real

terms from these despicable attacks - most

recently on Turkey (that touched me deeply as

I have many memories of times spent with

friends and family there) - and one senses

there just has to be better ways.

 

Perhaps as we work here together on eGov

we can help in some small or large way.
