But of particular interest to this blog and this blogger, I note the move of Stephen Carter from his Downing Street strategy job to the House of Lords, where he will be the Minister for technology, telecoms and broadcasting. It's being reported in some circles that this is a 'soft landing' after 'no discernible successes'. It's certainly a return to pastures old: Carter was the first chief executive of Ofcom, the regulator of telecoms and broadcasting.

I'm also hearing rumours about another change in the junior ministerial ranks, of even greater interest to us lot... which I'll cover if/when it happens.

PS: Interesting to see the BBC's 'snaps' (Twitter?) -style coverage of the day's proceedings doing so well in their 'most read pages' ranking earlier in the day. They're taking a leaf out of the Sport site's use of 'live text coverage' on a Saturday afternoon... and it worked well. When there was something to say, that is. Similar snappy style on most of the big news sites - Sky , Guardian, various others.

PPS: I see the Department of Energy and Climate Change have got their new domain all sorted out before close of play: decc.gov.uk Still DEFRA nameservers though...
