Date: Tue, 2 Mar 1993 22:51:14 EDT From: Susan_L._Irwin.Henr801C@XEROX.COM Subject: File 5--FWD: The White House Communication Project I am currently involved in a research project that is trying to aid the Clinton Administration in making effective use of computer-mediated communication to stay "in touch" with the public. Our coordinator has gotten in touch with Jack Gill, Director of Electronic Publishing and Public Access Electronic Mail for the Clinton Administration, and he (Gill) has embraced the efforts of the research group to lend a helping hand to this task. Some questions he has posed to the researchers include the following: (1) When you get thousands of messages a day, how do you respond effectively? (2) How do you make a public e-mail system inclusive and accessible? (3) What would happen if e-mail became the primary mode of(mediated) access to government? We would appreciate any insights and suggestions of possible solutions to these questions. Shellie Emmons sme46782@uxa.cso.uiuc.edu Downloaded From P-80 International Information Systems 304-744-2253
