• Nextgov - GSA signs deals for agencies to use social networking sites
  Agencies can now engage with citizens through popular media technologies such as video-sharing service YouTube, using pre-negotiated service agreements that comply with federal terms and conditions. After nine months of negotiations, the General Services Administration signed agreements with four video-sharing and social networking sites: Flickr, Vimeo, blip.tv and YouTube. GSA also is negotiating with the social networking sites Facebook and MySpace." (via Ari Herzog)

• Second thoughts: Service users are key to reform of adult social care, says Peter Beresford | Society | The Guardian
  "Recent reporting about social work and social care has understandably been heavily focused on children's services. Yet the need for radical reform in adult provision is also recognised by government. What is less clear, however, is how the transformation that is wanted is actually going to be achieved and what it will ultimately look like if the government's goal of "personalisation" - customised support - is to be realised."

• People Power: How can we personalise public services?
  "In this report NLGN argues that the traditional centralised provision of services often disregards the specific needs of individuals, leads to massive wastage and fails to meet the rising expectations of citizens. Instead, the next stage of public service reform should see citizens making their own choices - with greater individual control of resources - and communities empowered to generate their own revenue and invest in services that meet the needs of their local neighbourhoods. But, it concludes, current efforts to drive this agenda from the centre looks set to fail."
