State government is plodding in its embrace of technology to deliver services to the public, but the fact that it is plodding suggests that it is moving forward. A case in point: As part of its outreach program, the Department of Business Assistance is holding a webinar tomorrow about the state’s eVa procurment system. States Director Louisa Strayhorn:

Think about it: no traveling, no traffic, no unfamiliar conference room seating. Just you, us, and an opportunity to help your business without leaving your business. Not only is it more convenient for you, our customer, but it will allow VDBA to reach more customers at less cost. As a taxpayer, you’ve got to love that!

Yes, as a taxpayer, I do.
