What's on Social Media

	Liam Pomfret @LiamPomfret	The #censusfail inquiry is really dropping the ball if they're not challenging Kalisch and the ABS on the underlying #privacy issues.

	Darcy Wade Christ @1000camels	The #CensusFail is proof that most problems are not technical in nature. Any technical project that doesn't put people first will alway fail

	Steele Parker @SteeleParker	IBM Aus snr. engineer: Census outage could have been fixed by turning the router "off and on again". $8m contract for that... #censusfail

	Rosie Williams @Info_Aus	If there had been any evidence of 'scrutiny' of IBM's delivery it would have been presented by Kalisch. No evidence was provided #CensusFail

	Good Sir Knight @BrigadierSlog	Good advice, also, buy the damn third router. Just in case! https://t.co/0dMfiNbLvS

	Amy Walduck @amywalduck	Challenge for gov is having the ability to adapt much more quickly & how they can leverage new technology #biig2016
