Want to see some of the latest government sites..try apps.gov, data.gov and Recovery.gov. Recovery.gov is supposed to provide information on where the stimulus dollars are being spent. Let me know if you find anything interesting.

Federal Computer week outlined the Must-Have features for top-flight government websites. The six included:
1. Transparency
2. Collaboration
3. Searchability
4. Engagement
5. Archiving
6. Better Services
Some of the sites they recognized as being on target were Health and Human Services Department, Utah, and the U.S. Postal Service.
It is an article worth reading to use in vetting your website.

Our team has been working diligently to complete training for EmpoHR 9.0 for the NFC. It is the NFC’s version of PeopleSoft 9.0 for Human Resources. It is a challenging project in that we so not have access to a training database which makes the development with UPK more difficult. The User Productivity Kit is a great tool though and produces nice training manuals, online training, instructor manuals and job aids. I have enjoyed learning the development side of this application and look forward to more development of training materials and programs.
