Wigley and Associates

Like last year, I’m using Yahoo’s calendar feature for my 2006 UK trip itinerary.

I’ll note additions and changes here in the blog but that’s the best place to check for an overview of my schedule.

I’ve converted all three City of Eden Prairie weblogs over to the WordPress blogging platform. They have slightly different URLs now: City Manager Scott Neal; Police Chief Dan Carlson; Fire Chief George Esbesensen.

I’m amazed at how easy it was to import all their archived Blogger posts. Now for the interesting part: teaching them how to use it. Stay tuned.

I’m returning to the U.K. for a two-week leadership blogging/podcasting tour, 27 March through 7 April.I was in the UK exactly one year ago, Feb. 2005 with my colleague (above right), Eden Prairie City Manager Scott Neal. (See the 2005 UK trip photo album.) The gentleman on the left: Fraser Henderson, Senior Project Officer at NorthLincsNet, who manages the ReadMyDay project and who arranged for my trip again this year.

I’m ready to have my schedule filled. My Fraser-made appointments thus far:

• a Lord Errol event at the House of Lords on 29th March
• an e-Gov expo in London on the 6th April

If you’d like me to consider visiting you or making a presentation at an event, let me know.
