NBN Evangelists enlisted for a virtual crusade

The federal government has decided to recruit NBN advocates from the community, business, education and association sector to help tell the public how a future NBN will work. Prominent advocates and high profile 'evangelists' including a chief scientist, a famous author, and the head of a major telecommunications users group.
The government announcement stressed the 'voluntary' nature of these appointments, supposedly meaning that these people are not the usual high paid crew of spin doctors and professional opinion makers.
This method might just cut some mustard in a slogan saturated public arena that always assumes that citizens are too busy for real and informed opinions. Regional NBN wishes the evangelists good luck and good communicating.
