Open University Offers Free On-line Learning

What a nice idea: Thanks to a donation from the Hewlett Foundation, the Open University now offers world-wide free access to some of its material.

The material is only in English, but is easy to read and understand, if rather basic - it’s mostly intended to be introductory. I do hope that the OU (and other UK Universities) add further material.

Ideal Government

Let's say what we want from e-enabled government. Let's observe government first-hand. Let's say "Wouldn't It Be Better If" (WIBBI). Become an ethnographer of bureaucracy today! It beats getting frustrated with public services.
