Ideal Gov Jan 08 mini-reflection

Since our Clustrmap is about to reset itself let’s record traffic. We seem to have had
42,131 visits in 2007
15932 visits in 2006
and 2894 in the last three months of 2005.

The waybackmachine has some early IdealGov pages, and even what the domain looked like before we took it over (which was AIR Aug 04).  Alexa reports we’re the 1.5millionth most popular web site in the world, which would be encouraging if the figures werent so unreliable given that, ahem, the appeal of this site is so selective, and also that they see as much traffic from Romania as from the UK. Bone Fide Romanian readers: please announce yourselves! We think you’re almost entirely spammers. Spammers of Romania: desist! Now we have comment moderation your weird utterances get junked.

I think this still feels like a vibrant small fringe meeting with some regulars and some people who drift in and out without announcing themselves. I’m happy with the mood and manners, and the exercise is certainly still proving good for my mental health. I hope it works for you too.

PS William’s personal non-ideal-gov stuff is starting to accumulate at http://williamheath.net

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.
