Giving In and Giving Up on Tag Relationships - (USA)
Well, it finally happened. I got too lazy to comb through the relationships in the taxonomy I've been using on this site over the years and I've decided to stop creating parent/child relationships.

?????????? ???? ????????, Muslihoon, Hijo de Puta - (USA)
Our great friend Muslihoon a.k.a. M’oon a.k.a. Moo’n a.k.a. M’o”o;n^^ turns a year older today. As disappointing as that is, I thought we should still muster the strength necessary to beat the crap out of him with the official Hostages Birthday Stick of Pain™ .

Regular readers will know of my interest in citizen engagement with policy development processes, information systems governance, and my respect for AGIMO and AGIMO’s political masters (including Gary Nairn from the Howard regime). So, with Lindsay Tanner launching the Government 2.0 Taskforce , which is looking at ways of leveraging recently introduced "Web 2.0" tools (I hate that term, and prefer "The Semantic Web"), it’s worth raising again my submission to the AGIMO consultation about o
