Yes, and now I remembered the i4d magazine special on the Millennium Development Goals that led me to the monographic on Water and Agriculture (added to the links section)

I had in my (infinite) toread list this report
“Participative Water Resources Management; an Evaluation of the Performance of Four ICT Tools”
http://topics.developmentgateway.org/water/rc/ItemDetail.do~1048007
I never got to read it but maybe it is useful for you and your readers.

In the process to find again that resource (yeah, I know, I should use better del.icio.us…) I found a bunch of other links that might be interesting as well, and yes, I know, nowadays finding few links is very easy, reading and judging them is actually the real contribution, nevertheless here they are:

Hi Ismael! I read the post on water and ICT, and I would like to say that wireless sensor networks can be successfully used in the field of water. Just as examples, here are two links:
