Dave,


The readers of your list will be interested in the new release of the White
House web site, if for no other reason than:


- Information about government agencies that is easier to find and more 
complete: Working with the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, 
Welcome to the White House now provides access to the best search 
facility for government information on the Internet.  Users can enter a 
plain language question and be directed to where information on that 
subject is available on all of the government sites on the World Wide 
Web.  This index is more comprehensive and faster than other online 
indices for searching government information.


There is also a new kids version for those of you with children ;-)


   http://www.whitehouse.gov/  is where point your browsers.


C-SPAN will be doing a feature on this tomorrow at 8:30AM - but check your
listings as I may have the time off by a few minutes.


Regards,


Jock Gill


PS: Copy sent to C. Priest & Jim Warren too.
