Welcome to the Socitm web 2 website

This microsite supports and supplements the report Web 2.0: what it is and why it matters – a briefing for public sector managers, published in September 2008 by the research arm of the local authority ICT management association Socitm. The report describes a wide range of ‘Web 2.0’ developments - wikis, blogs, mash-ups, social networking, user generated content, and the rest - and discusses their significance for all public sector managers – not just web or ICT specialists.
