US Opens Portal for Online Comments on Regulations

Judg3 writes " My most recent newsletter from the Center for Democracy and Technology included a link to the newly unveiled Regulations.Gov site that allows individuals to more easily find and comment on proposed rules being considered by federal agencies. Comment on proposed rules ranging from the Secretary of Defense, Coast Guard, Veteran Affairs Admission, to even the Post Office." Here's a newsletter about the site.

anywhere but here?

Damned if they do, damned if they don't.

Pick any country, cos by the sound of it, anywhere has to be better than the US in your mind.

But if you're going to threaten it, do it. Don't be a Baldwin. And don't forget to renounce your citizenship while you're at it...

Gov blog after /. model

[BarfBits]

Why is the US Gov using such a lame method?
They should be using a more successful model like
running their own blogs. Or better yet, contract
with /. so we can have more favorable mods.

Taco; Yea, you're comment was offensive, and the fact that slashdot is aware of the oops on the flag and doesn't change it is annoying at best, but hey, too bad for us. Warhawks; Chill out, all this flaming was started by one over eager uncle sam over at source forge. Yea /. screwed up the symbol of the land of the free, but it wasn't personal! Probably some tired graphic designer they have locked up in the back wasn't given his daily ration and went loopy. All I'm saying is you all wasted a lot of time over a simple mistake.
