If you live on the east coast, you remember, probably perfectly, what you were doing sometime around 2pm on August 23. I for sure do. I was sitting at my desk here at GovLoop wondering why in the heck our office […]
Lauren Modeen started the topic Does your agency require moderation of public facing online discussion? in the forum Technology 2 years, 7 months ago

Recently, many people have been asking me about how government organization handles moderating public facing online discussions.
So far two themes seem to be emerging – 1) members are allowed to add discussions that are posted directly to the forum and only moderated if the discussion is in violation of their policy, or – 2) the discussion must be…[Read more]

I just read this funny article in the Washington Post that is crowd-sourcing creative new valentines. Some are super funny, some a bit creepy. What would yours be? If you want yours added to their site, tag it #OnLove on Twitter.

Clay Shirky TED talk on why SOPA is a bad idea. A must watch.

Bill: I think whether having the “Facebook Eye” and you living YOUR life depends on your intention and your awareness in the sharing. If you are solely sharing with the goal of need for approval, definitely no. You are not living your own life freely, but under the shackles of pleasing others.

Yesterday, I left for Minnesota. When I got to the DCA airport, I “checked-in” via Foursquare, tweeted that the security line wasn’t too bad, noticed on Facebook that a co-worker was on his way to the airport and told him I’d save him a seat at the gate. When I arrived in Minnesota, I checked into the MSP airport, and checked into my hotel,…[Read more]
