According to an email from the Federal Citizen Information Center the USA.gov website just got better.
For the past decade, people have been turning to USA.gov to get all the information they need about government programs, benefits and services—all in one place. Now a good thing is even better thanks to a new website design based on suggestions from users.
USA.gov is still the centralized place to get information from local, state, and federal government agency websites, but now it’s even faster and easier to find.
Explore the new USA.gov and you’ll discover:
• A more streamlined layout, making it easier for you to learn about and use government services online. You’ll also find new ways to share your ideas with the government through online discussions and social media.
• Searching is fast! The newly re-vamped search engine generates an even speedier results page, with suggestions for related search terms to help you find exactly what you’re looking for.
• Sections featuring the most popular topics and services are easier to find, so applying for benefits or grants, looking for a government job, and contacting your elected officials is a breeze.
• A collection of government mobile applications. You need information on-the-go, so USA.gov is constantly adding new mobile apps for smart phones. Some of the newest include: a UV Index monitor to check your risk for sunburn; a real time air quality report based on your location; a product recalls finder; and for air travelers, apps to see what items are allowed in carry-on luggage and to find airport security line wait times.
While Uncle Sam’s top hat will never go out of style, his website keeps up with the times. Check out the new USA.gov for government information—faster and easier than ever before.
