Yay!
The city of Birmingham has stepped up with a new website!
(mmm… new website… pretty colors… tasty… mmm…)
So, I was clicking around, looking for the RSS feed for news and updates…
Nothing.
One step forward, one step back.
I’ll be getting in touch with someone at the city, to see if there are some feeds on the drawing board. It is a brand new rollout, after all — and timed to the beginning of the year, there might have been a few things left unfinished.
While I’m at it, I’ll suggest a page where people can download and mindlessly install the appropriate widgets so those feeds will keep residents connected to the news.
It would be a great advance in transparent government. And if that should fall on deaf ears…
