Year round learning for product, design and engineering professionals

Social media and government 2.0 at Web Directions South this year

A while back I was browsing George Oates’ blog when I came across a reference to a pioneering project happening right here in Australia at the Powerhouse Museum, where, to put it briefly, the collection has been opened to public contribution through tagging. The project, which has been widely recognised and applauded, is being run by Sebastian Chan, a name I recalled from listening to so many Tuesday afternoons on 2SER Radio.

It’s very exciting to announce then the latest addition to the Web Directions South program for 2007: Sebastian Chan on Social media and government 2.0. Come along to hear why the museum has made these very successful forays into social media, and how a small in-house web development unit was able to push through and launch a project which is counted among Australia’s top web 2.0 applications. If you work in a large organisation and have dreams of social media, do not miss this session.
