The Party of European Socialists: A Democratic Way Forward
2010-03-16 15:39:00 The Party of European Socialists has done some important initial work in preparing the ground for a more democratic and social European future.

Unique Identity To Each Citizen- Will The Mobile Subscriber Database Help G
2009-08-27 08:56:00 The Unique Identification Authority of India certainly has its job cut out for it. Since the revelation that every Indian would be getting a unique identification number, WATBlog has covered the developments. The inclusion of prolific technocrat Nandan Nilekani as the head incharge of the panel ushers in the prospect of new governance – where corporate ingenuity and technical expertise is appreciated. However, the most troubling aspect of it all is the concept of the database. How do you document 1 billion individuals. Let’s start small. In an interview, Mr. Nilekani stated that first few million would be out in a few months. Here’s an interesting article I read on how he could begin. So, what are his options? Voter ID cards, Ration Cards, Drivers Licenses, PAN (Personal Account Numbers), Passports? Even a comprehensive list is small. And the demographic could be overlapping. The difficulty is the verification. The widespread reach of the ration and the voter ID, t...

Blackhawks gone wild; citizen Kane finally hits someone (allegedly)
2009-08-10 02:13:00 Patrick Kane has been holding out on us. Who knew he could hit anyone, angrily or otherwise? Allegedly, of course. There will be many skeptics unless the cabbie has video. And, judge, by the way, there are quite a few witnesses from last season at United Center who will swear on a Bible this angelic-looking skating demon has never hit anything more than an odd indentation in the ice once in a while. C'mon, your honor, watch the tape of the Blackhawks season. The kid's not guilty. Did you see one time he went out of his way to whack anybody? This isn't Mike Peluso here. Kane might have an evil twin. Hopefully his lawyer looks into this being an identify theft....
Citizen-Friendly Portals From The Government Coming Soon
2009-07-24 14:20:00 I have been jabbering about how politicians and the government need to enhance their online presence, and it looks as if the UT administration has finally reached that decision. The Chandigarh Administration is in talks to develop a department wide front end interface for users which will encompass all the current and new e-Governance initiatives. It’s called the State Service Delivery Gateway (SSDG) and will go a long way in pushing user friendly, time saving and red-tape breaking schemes to the masses. If the project goes live; citizens will be able to download all kinds of forms through the Common Services Centers (CSC) outlets and submit them online. No more giving bribes to babus (don’t you just hate that?) or standing in long lines to get your passport forms. Sounds like a dream, I know, but just might come true. This Government of India initiative also aims at utilizing existing infrastructure and building more computing infrastructure. “The scheme aims at making all go...

The Private Citizen Equipment Poll

Queing up to be a Citizen Journalist.
2008-07-15 02:05:00 According to an interesting article in the Queue blog of John McQuiston WTSP has posted an ad looking for citizen journalists "The station will train 20 ordinary Joes and Janes to shoot video. WTSP will provide a camera and tripod for those chosen. Video may show on the air or on the station's web site with each video the station uses earning the shooter $20."John goes on to discuss the idea and and has come up with several reasons why the station might be doing it. including "But mostly, it sounds like a response to the threat from blogs like Seminole Heights or Davis Islands Today. They're both blogs dedicated to sections of Tampa. There are probably a lot more that I don't know about. Each by itself is no rival but together they continue the chipping away of local TV and newspaper audiences"Here is my thought. Lets get as many Seminole Heights residents applying for the citizen journalist jobs, that way the airways will be dominated by coverage of Seminole Heights events ...
Atlanta Citizen of the Year
2008-07-12 10:56:00 I meant to post this a while back -- this cracked me the hell up.The Krog Tunnel's graffiti isn't really harmful and is even something of an attraction -- it's often creative and makes the tunnel interesting instead of dull. The stuff in the surrounding area is occasionally inspired, too.The image of that guy sitting in a tree, waiting for people to come by with spray paint, cheers me to no end.I was gonna walk down to the area and shoot some photos this morning, but it's July and I failed to get up before 8 a.m. So never mind. And, anyway, I shot some photos down there some years back, and (as far as I can tell) I never posted them. (If I did, I can't find them, though since my memory's shot that means nothing.)
