  TA on Facebook

  There are new developments on Facebook: 1.) There is now a new official page of the European Parliamentary Technology Assessment (EPTA) network: http://www.facebook.com/EPTA.Network 2.) TheThere are new developments on Facebook: 1.) There is now a new official page of the European Parliamentary Technology Assessment (EPTA) network: http://www.facebook.com/EPTA.Network 2.) The Institute of Technology Assessment (ITA) in Vienna has got its own page: http://www.facebook.com/Institute.of.technology.assessment 3.) The journal TATuP is on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/pages/Technikfolgenabschatzung-Theorie-und-Praxis-TATuP/107371315987896 4.) The group on "Parliamentary TA", which existed since long, has changed its misleading and confusing name and is now "Technology Assessment around the World" at http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=57915593006 You are most welcome to join all these pages as group members of fans! 5.) There still exists another page called "EPTA" -- which is a misleading name, as it is in no way an offical site of this network: http://www.facebook.com/pages/European-Parliamentary-Technology-Assessment-EPTA-Network/100495126660659. This page is in process of change as the official representatives of EPTA have urged the founder of that page to change the name (which is difficult according to standard Facebook rules). Otherwise, the page is quite interesting as it collects numerous feeds in the wider field of "technology & society", participatory TA and the like.
