March 5th-6th Weekend Reflection

I enjoyed our discussion this weekend about e-government. Although I didn't know this particular term for it, I've given this issue some thought, especially in regards to patrons at our library who need to file for unemployment, apply for government assistance or file their income taxes. There are several things to consider when dealing with e-government. First, the citizens must be aware that the information is online. Second, citizens must have the technological capabilities to access the information. Third, the information must be organized in such a way that it can be easily found.

I am curious to do some research, and see how much the government in Croatia puts online. It may be a bit difficult to find specifics, due to the language barrier, but it would be interesting to see how their government is making use of technology.
