Submitted by on December 21, 2008 – 8:39 pm10 Comments

  5. Corporate Guidelines for Using Blogs and Forums
  6. The Sun Microsystems Communities: Sun’s Guidelines on Public Discourse
  7. Personal use of Social Networking and other third party website
  8. New BBC staff blog guidelines
  9. CIPR Social Media Guidelines
  10. Draft guidance for New Zealand State servants using social media
  11. Gartner Public Web Participation Guidelines

I think B3rn made a good point on his blog, which is to set up a collaborative space to write a general set of guidelines under a Creative Commons licence that Councils could freely adapt
