Thanks for the comments. This is a learning experience for us which is why Hansard are evaluating the pilot, so observations like yours are really helpful. Branding's a curious animal. We tested generationXperience with people over 50 and other oraganisations working with the target audience who really took to it. Maybe it's less appealing to people like us who aren't in the zone yet (!) We 've got some more interesting stuff to come and we'll see how it builds up. Drop in from time to time and let us know how you think it's going. All the best, Geoff Ashton Geoff.ashton@dwp.gsi.gov.uk Hi Simon – I’m one of the DWP blokes working on the generationXperience blog. Thanks for the comments.
