I will be facilitating one of the sessions at the Public Sector ICT 2008 event scheduled for 4-5 November 2008. Details of the event from the organiser’s flyer:

A two-day retreat dedicated to powering government modernisation through technology.

Public Sector ICT (PSICT 2008) is an exclusive event designed to help government decision-makers harness technology to generate cost and carbon efficiencies while improving citizen service levels.

This two day event has been produced specifically to help you:

� Meet and learn from the heads of ICT of organisations that are at the leading edge of government modernisation
� Hear first-hand accounts of successful ICT implementations in the public sector
� Understand the latest services and solutions
� Gain an insight into the most effective management strategies
� Network in relaxing surroundings

I will be facilitating a session on the second day of the conference on the topic:

Examining the role of web 2.0 technology and social networking tools in public administration

• Incorporating social networking tools into citizen-facing websites

• Managing identification and authentication for access to secure personal information on government websites

• Determining your approach to the use of social networking by your employees; can social computing be managed computing?

• Corporatising Facebook; creating internal expertise locators

• Overcoming the digital divide: engaging the mature staff demographic
