Found/interesting: 31 Jan – 19 Feb
I’ve not been indulging my social media habits as much as I’d like lately, but here’s a handful of stuff I’ve found interesting.
- G2 meets Thomas Gensemer, the man who masterminded Obama’s online presidential campaign - lots of gold dust in here, and lots of emphasis on the social media specialists’ mantra: objectives and outcomes, not tools.
- Twitter for beginners | uktrains | Cursebird – a cracking presentation on why Twitter is an important channel [update: embedded below], an illustration with the UK Trains mashup, and a neat illustration of why Twitter is also lots of fun. Oh, and this.
- The Poultry Keeper – I’d never heard of this one but it’s just been name-checked in the Power of Information Taskforce report as an example of peer communities, in the same sentence as Netmums. Those natural bedfellows of government online engagement and hen-keeping meet again!
- Ministers are pretty chatty on average – Ross has done the math.

Hello, I'm Neil Williams. I'm a government web geek, a dad, a husband, a grower of veg, a keeper of hens and a lapsed comedy writer, roughly in that order.
