Abstract
First paragraph: For a number of years, scholars interested in the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in government found it difficult to catch the attention of their colleagues in public administration and politics departments. Technology was broadly seen as dull and mechanical, part of the information systems scholarly community, and not as interesting or relevant as popular topics such as agenda-setting, accountability, network collaboration and new public governance. We were tolerated at conferences but it was generally quite difficult to get papers on ICT in government published in key public administration journals.
