We ask, you say, we do what the f*** we like

My Twitter correspondence with Barnet council's "engagement" wonk has led me to the discovery that Barnet's new Engage website is based on a product called "Citizen Space".

Check out Citizen Space here. On the features page you can see features familiar from the engage.Barnet website, most provocatively the "We asked, you said, we did" tab.

Mr Engage.Barnet tells me that the product will need tweaking for Barnet. Can he tweak that tab? Should say: "we proposed, you said, we went ahead and did it anyway".

Spot the difference, or: Finally, a use for another rubbish Barnet social media site

Barnet council has found a use for the latest in its long line of social media sites, this one called engage.barnet/Citizen Space/Consultation Hub (if only they would settle on a name, perhaps some of these projects might actually achieve some longevity).

Anyway, a while back, the London mayor's office granted Barnet some money to do up Dollis Valley Green Walk.

Your opinion is now sought on what should be the logo for the new walk. Click here to be offered a choice of wildly differing logos.

Now, don't say that Barnet council doesn't value your opinion!

Dollis Valley Green Walk logos - how many differences can you spot?
