Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Hugh Flouch, Founder of Networked Neighbourhoods  (& HOL) in BBC's Westminster studio in discussion with Jo Coburn, Andrew Marr and Ken Livingstone.

In an interview about using technology to crowdsource citizens' opinions for the purposes of developing government policy, Hugh references the Networked neighbourhoods research on citzen-led community websites and uses some examples from the North London site Harringay Online.

There's a video intro then discussion starts in studio 3 mins in.

Really interesting - something I'm going to share at work as we're at the baby steps stage of developing ideas for Camden.
Bully for you, Hugh, and for HOL. Coburn could have pursued the co-production lead you dropped to her - but in the time allotted, very well done.

(Andrew Marr looks suspiciously like Andrew Neil to me!)
I thought Hugh did well too, although the 2500 members from HOL don't come from the 'local population of 17,000' as implied. But never mind eh.
True Matt, but I would suspect 85% of the membership come from Harringay or within a mile of Harringay which is a very representable figure. Maybe Hugh has the figures on this? Without wanting to embarrass him any more, he came across very well, well done Mr H.
Thanks for the kind comments.

Will try and remember to check the figures later, but I think you're pretty much there with you're estimate Birdy.
well done Hugh! You have a good tv/radio voice.
Came across well I thought too, well done.
I saw this live which is what led to my joining the site. Glad I did - fascinating stuff here. Thank you all for a great site.
