Never trust a thin chef…

…nor a ‘blogging expert’ who doesn’t blog.

Stephen Hale, by that rationale, is a man you can trust. He has started a blog about his work as Head of Engagement, Digital Diplomacy at the FCO. And he’s done it on the Department’s corporate blogging platform, which makes this something of a first among the UK gov web bloggers. It also means I am officially no longer the new boy.

I bring you this news third hand, but still wanted to spread the word. It’s a great blog, and I’m adding it to my must-read list. Here’s my favourite bit so far:

“To be honest, we’re still working out what we can achieve through digital diplomacy. We do have a plan… But what’s exciting about this work is that we really don’t know how it’s it going to play out.”

Just the sort of refreshing honesty you’d want a blogging expert to demonstrate. Nice work, Stephen.

Thanks for the plug and for passing on the new boy baton – I’ll carry with with pride.
