Abstract : Effective communication between voters and members
of parliament is a key success factor democracy. Fortunately, modern
information technology is giving a lot of new channels to take care of
this communication. Traditionally, Members of Parliament have maintained
static www-sites, but nowadays more dynamic and interactive forms of
communication, such as blogs, Facebook and Twitter are almost a must for
the Members of Parliament, especially in the case of less popular
politicians. As in any technology application, even in www-presence of
Members of Parliament network externalities occur: unexpected
consequences of web-presence. This article sets out some preliminary
concepts and ideas on what these network externalities might
be.
