Profile Information:

About Me:
Born in the UK but now living in New Zealand for the last 7 years. CIO with the Ministry for Culture & Heritage in Wellington. I am very interested in P2P, Web 2.0 and the application of P2P technologies within government and within the enterprise to increase knowledge sharing and transparency.
Also very interested in issues of privacy and transparency in our brave new technological world...

I grew up in Auroville, Arcosanti and Findhorn in the late 70's through the 1980's and most recently lived at Findhorn in 2003/04, so have a long history in the 'intentional community' and 'human potential' spaces. Todays techniques and the p2p philosophy are not that different from what we all tried to make work back then but now we have the technology to make these collaborations and communities truly global... and mainstream!
How did you come across this network?
