Welcome to U.S. Government 2.0

We're off to a great start - at least technologically speaking - with the new Obama administration. Just check out the fresh new whitehouse.gov site. There are even several RSS feeds available (!). ...and it validates XHTML Transitional 1.0! (Now that is a geeky statement...)

News is also coming in that the robots.txt file on the new site is much less restrictive than it was previously (2400+ lines of 'disallows' vs. 1!). (Geeky statement #2...)

Finally, President Obama (ahhh...it really feels great to type that!) has taken over the @whitehouse Twitter account, so go follow it right now!

Now this is what I call 'change Hiro would believe in'! :)
