More on the Global Development Commons

http://www.globaldevelopmentcommons.net/ is the address of a new portal developed for USAID. It is an implementation of an initiative announced by Henrietta Holsman Fore, the Administrator of USAID. Currently it has little content. I noted that one of the few items on the portal seems to include an advertisement for a commercial firm. Too bad that USAID did not use the resources to support the Development Gateway, a good development portal run by a U.S. NGO.
