Scotland Office
CIVIC has relaunched the Scotland Office site for the Scottish Government, complete with Twitter-fed blog posts. It complements the recently-launched sister site, Office of the Advocate General: http://www.oag.gov.uk. The Scotland Office represents Scotland interests in Whitehall, supporting the work of the Secretary of State for Scotland, Jim Murphy.
The new website aims to clarify the Scotland Office’s role and explain how it is involved in the day-to-day devolution issues in Westminster and Holyrood. The new site has a simple and clear-cut navigation, with an image gallery of hi and low resolution images. The Secretary of State for Scotland also wanted the website to support web 2.0 technology.
CIVIC worked with the government to add social networking tools, including a blog (blog.scotlandoffice.gov.uk) and Twitter account for the Secretary of State. The Twitter account feeds recent posts to the blog, and the blog has an RSS feed to help people keep in touch.
Check out the site: http://www.scotlandoffice.gov.uk
