Hello,
This month features a report from BlueLightCamp, stats on IE 6 use in government, and Klout's new map of political influence on Twitter.
We also bring you HM Government's consultation on Open Standards, an update on our new API in Citizen Space, and several useful stories about social media and democracy.
I hope you enjoy this May edition. Please get in touch if you've got any feedback, by email or via @DelibThinks.
Cheers,
Andy
