OGE Web Site Upgrade
The OGE web site has undergone a significant upgrade. It appears to be a tremendous improvement, both substantive and esthetic. Among the many enhancements:
- Deletion of the initial warning banner. These are essential for private agency networks, but the omission from its site brings OGE in line with other federal agencies that find this unnecessary on sites intended to be publicly-accessible.
- The site uses a blog-type approach to archiving old announcements that makes them more accessible, plus a more efficient way of letting users choose between downloading formats.
One possible additonal improvement: Unlock the font sizes, so that viewers have the option to select a larger font in their browsers. Older users may particularly appreciate this.
