“I have never been one for networking of any kind, so I wasn’t really thrilled at the prospect of jumping into the world of social networking.
However, as I aspired to the ranks of the federal government’s Senior Executive Service, I realized that building coalitions and developing an extensive network of associates helps us collaborate and share best practices and provides for the flow of diverse ideas and diverse thinking.”
-Linda Cureton, NASA CIO, April 20, 2009http://fcw.com/Articles/2009/04/20/Cureton-comment.aspx

Transforming Government
• Indemnification and limited liability: seeking to remove the indemnification clause (because agency officials cannot agree to tie their agency to unlimited liability in violation of the Anti-Deficiency Act), and to ensure that liability is limited and covered by federal law.
• Jurisdiction and choice of law: the proposed agreements must be governed by the law of the United States and by the relevant state law only in the absence of other federal law.
• FOIA: the proposed agreements recognize that we adhere to the Freedom of Information Act.
• Intellectual property: the proposed agreements recognize that our content is in the public domain.
• Advertising: providers have assured that they will eliminate or minimize advertising and that they have no intention of adding advertising that they do not currently display.
• Grandfather arrangements: previous "click through" agreements will be superseded by new agreements, making it possible to "cover" existing accounts, avoiding the need to close old accounts and rebuild content from scratch.
• Free Service: in every case so far, providers will not chargefederal account holders for the use of their services. These are not contracts; they are no-cost agreements. While fee-based “premium” services may be available from the same provider, those are separate arrangements for which the agency should proceed under traditional “procurement” processes.
