A way of connecting the wider community, making FOI feel more human, and creating "leaders" as per this book.

Maybe a nice illustration of them, a very short bio and why our users should follow, and then a link (to their twitter, articles on their blog, wherever makes sense)

Could have any number of individuals, with a random 3-5 rendered randomly.

Could then be rendered as part of #1708 too.

Remember, Nike sells the commodity. They sell shoes. And yet when you think of Nike you feel something different than a shoe company. In their ads, as you know, they don’t ever talk about the product, they don’t ever tell you about their air soles and why they’re better than Reebok’s air soles.
What is Nike doing in their advertising? They honor great athletes and they honor great athletics.

Extracted from #1703, as this would be a better place. We could list both individuals and organisations in this section.

There's the regular #FOIFriday posts which could complement what we do, as well as the mailing lists run by Access Info.

It feels like we're in a key signposting position and have an ability to signal-boost good stuff to help people advance up the "FOI ladder".

Should also boost FOI Officers as they're generally champions of FOI within authorities.
