My partners here at MetroCascade built a little application right into our homepage, called The MetroCascade Digest (it’s the big yellow link at the top of the “Read” cascade). That’s where I’ll be posting curations from now on.

I have been taking a hiatus, but finally got around to posting one yesterday.

Since I own the bully-pulpit (as it were), that curation was all about Johnson Street Bridge news continued…, which is potentially the biggest issue facing taxpayers in the City of Victoria, and which is getting lots of coverage from several bloggers – including another site I’m involved with, Johnson Street Bridge DOT org. That site has many useful links, including a blog, of course.

In fact, Mat Wright just posted another entry in the wee hours today. It’s called How not to Communicate Redux: Johnson Street Bridge Victoria BC and asks some tough questions about the site called johnsonstreetbridge.com (not .org), which we have to assume was registered by the City of Victoria as part of its “communications” strategy around this project.

Mat’s analysis and questions are a must-read for how not to do municipal / governmental communication.
