DAILY BLOG REVIEW / by Jennie Rigg

Charlotte Gore has started a meme, which has been picked up by a couple of other people – can you name ten people who would be a better PM than Brown?

Daddy Alex thinks he has found the stupidest thing John Prescott has ever said. Yup even stupider than “I want you, Tracy”.

The e-hippies have done a pretty indepth study on the policing of dissent in this country. It’s long, but it’s worth digging into.

Jonathan Calder has this month’s Wikio exclusive, and the most worrying thing about it is that even after five days’ solid advertising coverage on the MSM (and even this blog), Guido still hasn’t knocked La Dale off his perch. Can anyone unseat the egregious Tory Tosser?

Stuart Sharpe has caused a big kerfuffle in the Lib Dem blogosphere for daring to suggest that we are insular and our websites are rubbish.

Our own dear Sarah talks about Chris Woodhead’s coming out as disAbled.

And finally Mr Eugenides has this week’s Britblog Roundup, or for yet more linkage, you can browse through previous Netcasts

Re the internet site debate. I have to declare an inested interest in this since I’m an ICT Tutor. I believe good websites are important. They are increasingly becoming the first call for many. Good businesses understand the importance of effective websites. They act as a shop window for consumers, in this case voters for political parties.

If websites are not updared regularly, or even have a blog or photos then it gives the impression that you don’t care, and unlikely to serve the voter’s best interests.

A blog may seen surplus to requirements but it’s a good way of interacting with the public, and can also illustrate that you are listening to their concerns, and not just canvassing for their votes when there is an election.
