Re: ELP 2.0 identity data (Google Docs)

Dear C3ers,

This is more useful than the current identity data collecting document.

To satisfy privacy concerns, I recommend:
  • First names only (surnames can be added to in-house version later)
  • Email, include username only. This will thwart spammers email bots e.g. gedoc27@gmail.com
  • Delicious username is OK, it is public anyway
The data can be harvested as a spreadsheet in the same way the current form works, BUT new!, spreadsheets can now be used as a form. To see what I mean, in the spreadsheet, click 'share", then work through the screens that follow "to fill out a form". I played with this yesterday, but did not have enough time to work up a solution - it could probably work, but I am not sure it would be the easiest solution in this particular case.

It's not an attachment -- it's stored online at Google Docs. To open this document, just click the link above.

Hi,

I created this spreadsheet to populate with the Gmail, Delicious and
other data that we normally publish. I wasn't sure whether to make
this data public or not. I noticed that Owen has created a simpler
form, but one that may still be public. We need to decide on the
public/private question, but ultimately I think having the data in a
spreadsheet that can be sorted may be most helpful.

Let me know what you think.

Bill
