Wayne Eddy commented on Synaps's blog post 'Private vs Corporate vs Public Enterprise'"Thought about this a bit more over the weekend. I think not-for-profits can also loose their way.
Logically, unless organisations evolve mechanisms over time to ensure that they continue to exist, they will disappear. Unfortunately the corporate…"
Wayne Eddy commented on Synaps's blog post 'Private vs Corporate vs Public Enterprise'"OK, I think I am pretty much on Synaps' side in this debate. I understand the theory that corporations end up being more efficient than governments because of competitive pressures, but I can't think of very many examples of the sale of…"
Synaps commented on Wayne Eddy's blog post 'The best way of organising information to help decision making'"Hi Wane
Great concept. I've had a quick look at your site, and I think I get the idea. I was especially interested as it, or it's further developement, looks to be ideal as a database for an idea I've been thinking about to implement…"
steve davies commented on Wayne Eddy's blog post 'The best way of organising information to help decision making'"Hi Wayne
I agree with Darron. Very broadly because people have different preferences - and even they are not static. Broadly speaking sites like OZloop, Wikis and micro-blogging services like Twitter seems to be the right mix for many people.…"

Wayne Eddy commented on steve davies's blog post 'Use of Wikis in the Australian Public Service'"I don't think more funding is necessarily the thing that is required to encourage innovation. I think that the main thing stifling innovation is the corporate worlds reluctance to freely & openly share information. It is in the best…"
Wayne Eddy commented on steve davies's blog post 'Use of Wikis in the Australian Public Service'"Hi, Darron.
I knew that people from a couple of Councils had IT related issues with accessing & contributing to LGAM, but I don't have much idea at all of what percentage of Councils block wikis.
If I had a list of which Councils are…"

Wayne Eddy commented on steve davies's blog post 'Use of Wikis in the Australian Public Service'"Here is a few things that I have used wikis for.
1. Storing & indexing information that would otherwise be just sitting in a directory/folder somewhere. This should not be challenging to anyone. Documents and photos just dumped into a folder on…"

The best way of organising information to help decision making
IMHO, Government 2.0 is or should be about using Web 2.0 technologies, and the collective intelligence of the general public to help make decisions which will (over the long term) increase the average personal happiness of the people in a given jurisdiction. Do you agree?
But how best to capture the collective intelligence of a community to make it readily available when it is needed?
I believe that an encyclopedic knowledge base is the best way to make pertinent information…

Hi Eddy
Yes, hopefully I will be able to continue working within a local government role when I return. Thanks for the link i will check it out. It sounds similar to a project that I'm currently working on called the Knowledge hub. A new online collaboration/innovation space for all public services. www.local.gov.uk/knowledgehub
Thanks again
Charlotte

- Hi Wayne - Thanks for doing that.
Completely agree with the Wiki idea. After all, the AGIMO blog has been launched a little while back and is available to everyone.
I suspect there are two problems to be dealt with. Overcoming organisational silos and a perception that it would be just to big to take on. I think one way to start could be to find out which agencies already have a wiki operating behind their firewall, get them into the outside world and then either consolidate them or, easier still, sit them behind a web page on gov.au or wherever.
Cheers
Steve
