Pimp my grid

This may have been blogged already by one of my esteemed Dutch friends closer to the action, but sadly I have been too absorbed to notice (sorry guys - if you have, send me a link to point to), but I just stumbled across a link to a presentation delivered last month in Italy by the Almere Grid, which I wrote about here in those heady days of 2006. Looks like a predictably interesting piece of joined-up thinking from the Netherlands, combining an access strategy, shared backup services for SMEs, academic research, and city planning. It's ironic to discover that Almere is twinned with Milton Keynes...
