Here is something I found kinda amusing.   http://www.whitehouse.gov says

"  HOW DOES IT WORK?

   Using software such as Mosaic (distributed for free by the
   Federally-supported National Center for Supercomputing Applications),
"

but in the Al Gore news conference, they were clearly using Netscape!  =)

  When I got my preview on Wednesday at the Old Exec. Office Building, 
they had a bunch of browsers to choose from. I picked Mosaic at random.
  since I've been back at the office, I've found Lynx does the job very 
nicely.

The WWW at the White House is pretty nice. The thing that I feel that is MOST
IMPORTANT is not so much the physical thing itself, but the idea of it.

It is, I feel, a step in the right direction. This country needs more
technology in a great deal of areas, and this is a step in the right direction.
If not for real-use -- for a stepping stone.

Do you agree?

FYI -- or if you care: I applied to do the White House WWW a few months ago -- 
it was an internship to be done where you do "office stuff" and the WWW. 

I didn't get it, but I did come close (on the "score card" I got the closest 
thing you could get to getting it without getting it)... tho almost is only 
in horse shoes and nuclear bombs. But I was honored either way.
