		<description><![CDATA[Interesting briefing paper out from the Consultation Institute today on what the Big Society might be, and how the government needs to issue more specifics on it, which reminded me of a point I&#8217;ve been pondering for a while.

		<title>Online Engagement With Youtube</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I remember blogging about this sort of thing more than once back in the day, here and here for example, but this story in the e-Government Bulletin has left me really shocked. It&#8217;s a no brainer that if you want &#8230; <a href="http://www.delib.co.uk/dblog/online-engagement-with-youtube/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>What&#8217;s smart for honeybees is smart for groups of people too</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We (humans) think we&#8217;re a clever bunch, and always assume we&#8217;re the fonts of innovation and inventors of new solutions to problems &#8211; whether that&#8217;s a new technology or a new theory. However, often it&#8217;s the case that we&#8217;ve been &#8230; <a href="http://www.delib.co.uk/dblog/whats-smart-for-honeybees-is-smart-for-groups-of-people-too/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Andy&#8217;s Rules #1631 &#8211; What makes &#8220;good&#8221;?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is a rule I&#8217;ve been using for a while now. Great for making web apps &#8220;good&#8221;, but can be used in other places too (product design, customer service, copywriting, advertising). Being &#8220;good&#8221; is a route to &#8220;win&#8221;. 80% practicality &#8230; <a href="http://www.delib.co.uk/dblog/andys-rules-1631-what-makes-good/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>More Budget Consultation, Budget Dialogues and Participatory Budgeting!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Everyone&#8217;s talking about spending and budgets at the moment, changes that are going to affect everyone&#8217;s lives. As well as the Government&#8217;s Spending Challenge Dialogue being run with our Dialogue App, it&#8217;s not surprising that we&#8217;re also getting tons of &#8230; <a href="http://www.delib.co.uk/dblog/more-budget-consultation-budget-dialogues-and-participatory-budgeting/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Delib on BBC Radio Newcastle</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On Friday I had a surprising text from Gez which read, &#8220;Youre going on the radio in fifteen minutes&#8221; (kthxbai).

		<title>How the UK government is turning itself into a platform</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The concept of &#8220;government as a platform&#8221; is a simple one: just as the value of the iPhone has been maximised by opening up the iPhone and allowing users to create apps (200,000+ to date), so should government open itself &#8230; <a href="http://www.delib.co.uk/dblog/uk-government-as-platform/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;ve been working in the digital democracy space for close to 10 years now, so it was nice to get a call from the Guardian back in May to ask if I (as one of the co-founders of Delib) would &#8230; <a href="http://www.delib.co.uk/dblog/delib-in-the-guardian/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
