Today I presented at the Local Government Web Network Conference in Sydney on using new digital media platforms in government communications.Here are some links you might find interesting:

If you are having troubling convincing your elected council officials to try social media, ask them to listen to this podcast of Donna Papacosta interviewing Rob Burton, the 63 year old Mayor of the Canadian city of Oakville.
In this interview Mayor Rob discusses using Twitter, blogs and Facebook to communicate his municipal duties. This is well worth a listen.
Cheers and good luck to all my colleagues in Local Government.
