I am a big fan of Web 2.0 and the use of crowd sourcing to help provide answers for free. I run several blogs such as the Egyptology blog, News from the Valley of the Kings, and the help many people give me is wonderful. I try to pay that back by helping the people who contact me and by releasing some open source software.
It is pleasing to see this developing within the pensions area. I am aware of two initiatives, mallowstreet and Trusteeweb. I have some reservations about their commercial links. Those links pay for the service, but it is a difficult balance. I cannot specifically recommend either of the services, but membership of a service like that may benefit many pension scheme trustees as it gives them networking opportunities. By ethos, I am more inclined to ctn (charity trustee networks) which is a registered charity. It is aimed more broadly at charity trustees.
