Blog Brief: Off Topic – The EPA opens up…

…it’s website, that is.

It looks like the EPA is on it’s way for a prolonged overhaul of it’s website. And the first step, appears to be a new front page.В  I took a look at it, and though it has hints of 1969, the new looks are promising.

Apparently, the EPA website has a whopping 500,000 pages. That is whopping! Of my handful of websites, once I had counted my homepage at 1,200+ pages. That pales in comparison to what the EPA has to overhaul! We should appreciate that!

So congratulations, EPA. One down, 499,999 more to go?

Open Government Directive

In addition, they are also talking about open government at the EPA. This of course is not unique to the EPA. The Obama Administration has issued an Open Government Directive and the EPA is doing it’s bit. They have invited everyone to share ideas.

It is always good to see any government try to keep up with the times (hear that China?).

One would only hope that there will be fewer missteps, like the one I pointed a few days ago:
