I'd be curious to know how many agencies cannot take advantage of this due
to social network blockage by I.T. policies. I, for one, cannot access any
Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, or any other social networking pages.
That being said, we cannot create and/or take advantage of those same
technologies, particularly as an avenue for Public Participation.

sometimes publishes projects' simulations on YouTube and I have to look

employees, but I don't believe they have actually pondered the

There are a lot of tools to break such censor/block and protect user identity. Such tools
have been used in Iran, etc (Now your working place is like Iran :) You can find it on
Google or use
http://torproject.org
If you use such tools, do not use for banking or paypal account. Because your location and
identity cannot be confirmed and paypal thought you are a hacker and disable you account.

Wow -- who would have thought that Penelope's simple announcement would create such a
stir!
At the TRB mid-year meeting in Minneapolis, there will be session on Sunday, July 11, 2010
from 9 a.m. - 12:45 p.m.
"Putting Web and Social Networking/Media Technologies to work for TRB committee and
transportation organizations"
http://pressamp.trb.org/conferences/programs/default.asp?event=591
This is the link to the preliminary agenda.
You might want to contact Jeffrey Western to ask him to include the topic of restrictions
to access to social networking sites in the discussion. (Maybe Ed Christopher or Kate
Lawson can contact Jeffrey, since they are involved in the program for this meeting).
There is also a Census data workshop at this meeting, scheduled for Tuesday, July 13 from
2 - 5:45 p.m. which will cover much more than CTPP. I posted a notice about this session
to the CTPP facebook page last week. :-)

Those considering the below may want to consult your workplace's IT policies before
proceeding. Places that are blocking Facebook (et al), probably also have a policy that
says that you can be terminated for circumventing such blocking.
Those in that situation would be better by either visiting the sites at home (as one
previous message indicated) or by trying to get the "powers that be" to change,
perhaps by citing how social networking websites have been used successfully. You can
look at the Facebook group "Online Social Networking Applications for Planners"
for some ideas, and I apologize for providing another Facebook reference for those that
can't view it at work.

Yes, I think bringing IT and senior management along is a better idea
than circumventing policy. Hopefully, CTPP, TxDOT and even USDOT's many
facebook and other social networking pages and efforts will help give us
fuel, fodder or leverage in convincing our own agencies to change.

There is a directory that Microsoft is creating at
http://gov2social.cloudapp.net/SocialResource/Index. The directory is quite broad (it
includes elected officials, state DOTs, and in "up to 48 hours", it will include
at least one MPO (when they add OKI to the directory). Those agencies already using
social networking can go to the same link and submit their info to be included in the
directory.
Hope this helps anyone looking for fuel to get their IT department/senior management to
change.

I have the same issue you do, therefore I send all of these "social network"
messages to my personal address, although I believe that my colleagues miss out on some
opportunities to learn. Our state DOT sometimes publishes projects' simulations on
YouTube and I have to look at them at home. I can understand that some agencies may fear
abuse by employees, but I don't believe they have actually pondered the disadvantages
of blocking such sites.

I'd be curious to know how many agencies cannot take advantage of this due to social
network blockage by I.T. policies. I, for one, cannot access any Facebook, Twitter,
LinkedIn, YouTube, or any other social networking pages. That being said, we cannot create
and/or take advantage of those same technologies, particularly as an avenue for Public
Participation.

I imagine many of us on this list have a IT story or two to tell by now.
There's alot more than just "social networking" sites that are getting
blocked at the workplace, and as long as we're living in an age of Gotcha
journalism I don't see how that's going to change much at least in the
public sector. That's why I've moved most of my listserves to home email,
and I imagine that alot of work is now getting done on home computers given
the hassles with such things as software use and network overhead at the
office. So I'd just say either don't get that excited about getting your
agency onto Facebook-type sites, or just accept and plan for alot of your
customers accessing it in "nontraditional" ways.

same link and submit their info to be included in the directory.
Hope this helps anyone looking for fuel to get their IT department/senior

Yes, I think bringing IT and senior management along is a better idea than
circumventing policy. Hopefully, CTPP, TxDOT and even USDOT’s many facebook
and other social networking pages and efforts will help give us fuel, fodder
or leverage in convincing our own agencies to change.

It's just as bad to not make a plan as to blindly follow the one you
already have.

I had written back offline to Mr. Prawiranata that many 'fellow' employees
had, in fact, become 'former' employees by circumventing County firewalls in
manners like that described. As I said to him, "I need my pension."

Those considering the below may want to consult your workplace's IT
policies before proceeding. Places that are blocking Facebook (et al),
probably also have a policy that says that you can be terminated for
circumventing such blocking.
Those in that situation would be better by either visiting the sites at
home (as one previous message indicated) or by trying to get the "powers
that be" to change, perhaps by citing how social networking websites have
been used successfully. You can look at the Facebook group "Online Social
Networking Applications for Planners" for some ideas, and I apologize for
providing another Facebook reference for those that can't view it at work.

There are a lot of tools to break such censor/block and protect user
identity. Such tools have been used in Iran, etc (Now your working place is
like Iran :) You can find it on Google or use
http://torproject.org
If you use such tools, do not use for banking or paypal account. Because
your location and identity cannot be confirmed and paypal thought you are a
hacker and disable you account.

That sounds similar to the IT security policies here and the more I've learned
independently (at least about FB) the more I understand why it's necessary. If you
haven't heard about FB's latest "instant personilization" - the default
is being opted in, so you must change your privacy settings to prevent it - you may want
to check it out.
It looks to me more like complete "depersonalization" of your information,
including tracking any websites you visit.
In addition, here in Colorado, the Attorney General's office has raised some serious
legal questions about the "terms of use" agreements as they may apply to any
public agencies which have established presences on the various social networking sites.
The primary issue is the clause which transfers legal liability from the site-owner to the
end-user: apparently, that is both illegal and un-state-constitutional here. You may
want to check with your in-house counsel and/or state AG's office about the
implications of TOUs or EULAs for the various networking sites fi you're a public
agency.
