Just last week the UK Cabinet Office posted a couple videos to YouTube in an effort be at once hip and informative. Despite the less than enthusiastic reviews of the content, the mere act of posting the videos was called "ground-breaking and one other governments might well follow" in Silicon.com.
Today, in an act straight out of the "The Office" (OG), different folks from a different part of the very same governmental entity requested YouTube to take down the videos "because its content was used without permission."
Silicon.com follows-up...
A spokesman for independent body Public Sector Forums, told silicon.com: "The COI is part of the Cabinet Office. So it looks like the Cabinet Office's initiative has fallen at the first hurdle and ironically, it's thanks to a lack of joined-upness between parts of its own ministry."
And...
A Cabinet Office spokeswoman told silicon.com: "We said that this is a small scale trial or experiment. Trials are meant to flush out a whole range of issues precisely such as these. Rights for online distribution are notoriously complex.
Indeed. And, to be fair this is far from the first time that this has happened. As we noted back in March, YouTube co-founder Chad Hurley told the Hollywood Reporter:
"There's been a few examples of marketing departments uploading content directly to the site, while on the other side of the company their attorney is demanding we remove this content."
BTW, we can't help ourselves, the "overarching purpose of the UK Cabinet Office is making government work better."

I have noticed that in old digital cameras, special sensors help to maintain focus automatically. The actual sensors with some surveillance cameras change in in the area of contrast, while others start using a beam with infra-red (IR) light, specially in low light. Higher standards cameras often use a mix of both systems and likely have Face Priority AF where the dslr camera can 'See' some sort of face as you concentrate only in that. Many thanks for sharing your ideas on this website.

I’m impressed, I have to admit. Seldom do I come across a blog that’s both equally educative and amusing, and let me tell you, you have hit the nail on the head. The problem is something that not enough men and women are speaking intelligently about. I'm very happy I found this during my hunt for something regarding this.
