The finalists for the Digital Challenge Awards have recently been announced. Which, we are sure, is very exciting for those who have got that far down the line. Organised by the Department for Communities and Local Government we are informed that their objective is to “to create a world class example of a wired up community”.

However, we found today that The Digital Challenge themselves are excluded from this “wired up” utopia. The link to the relevant site did not work for most of the day. So we weren’t able to find out who was sharing the £1 million funding to take their proposals further.

Update: The link for this site is now working. Unfortunately not in enough time for us to examine the finalists.
