I love Project WIP – Shropshire Council’s blog about their efforts to redesign their website.
It’s got a great tone and style, is useful and interactive and gives people a chance to know what is going on behind the scenes, and to get involved too.
It’s also really helpful – take their latest post about responsive design and DPI as an example.
Camden Council did something similar with their web rebuild too.
Why just website projects though? Why aren’t all government projects reported on in the open, via a blog?
It would increase transparency, allow for interested folk to contribute from the outside and open up the teams involved to all kinds of goodwill.
