Please reread the closing case, Social Networking Initiatives by the New Zealand Government. Given the richness of New Zealand’s offerings, do you believe that the portal style of e-government will disappear?

The case study that this discussion thread is examining is on pages 250 - 252 of your textbook. As you are reading the case study think about what other kinds of businesses you have seen that have portals.  When I think back on my career in the public sector I remember the very intricate and data rich portal that Delta Airlines had.  I remember that for my department (I was in safety and compliance) the pages of information went on forever! Are portals a thing that will be around for some time?  I like them - and I like having a one stop place to go for all my information. The required part of the textbook is attached
