Zilino

Just a quick note to let you know that Zilino will be in Austin, TX for SXSW ‘11.  We have made good progress over the past few months and are ready to run some projects. A number of meetings with potential clients are already being scheduled. Should get quite interesting.

If you’d like to meet, just look us up!

Zilino on ParticipateDB

by Tim on May 14, 2010

We just added Zilino to the collection of online tools for participation on ParticipateDB.

About ParticipateDB:

ParticipateDB is a collaborative catalogue for online tools for participation (often referred to as tools for web-based engagement, online participation, e-participation, e-consultation, online dialogue, online deliberation etc.).

The site aims to build a comprehensive guide to the many online tools for public participation and related forms of citizen engagement — large and small, commercial and open source, mature and experimental — as well as the context in which they are being applied.

Going forward, we will add projects, case studies and other references over there.

I feel like sharing a few of [...]
