Blogging catching on in the Australian public sector

I’m glad to see that blogging is beginning to become a more used tool within the Australian public sector, with the ABS launching Statistically Speaking, a blog for libraries in September, the Training.gov.au Project Blog having been running since June this year (with a Twitter feed since October at @TrainingGovAu) and Stap isi, a blog for local government, around since late August.

There are also a number of councillors blogging in the local government arena (list at Stapisi) – and as the site states, it’s not a blog if comments are disabled (thanks Julie for the compliment of copying my design layout).

I have been told that there is also a state government blogger in WA, though have not yet tracked down their blog (can anyone help?) and the SA government won a Commendation for an internal blog in the recent Intranet Innovation Awards 2008.

If anyone is aware of other Australian government public sector blogs please let me know.
