Government 2.0: Policy and Practice

Senator Lundy's Government 2.0: Policy and Practice is a one day conference at Parliament House, Canberra, 22 June 2009. This is about creating an even more participatory form of government in Australia. The event will be streamed live and comments are invited, before, during and after, to the event web site, as well as blogs taged publicsphere and Twitter #publicsphere. I will be speaking on "m-Government 2.0 - Making government accessible online on your phone".
