RSS and State Legislatures
Anything the government can do to imptove contact with the people is good. RSS is a great solution to help with this, and it is getting more attention:
The National Association of Legislative Information Technology (NALIT) will[RSS in Government]
be sharing "Web Tips, Tricks and Techniques" for building Legislative RSS feeds
at their 2004 Professional Development Seminar in beautiful Burlington, Vermont,
September 8-11, 2004. Panelists include key IT players from Virginia, Nevada,
and Utah. Several states are now using RSS to provide users with notices of new
Web content or to distribute newsletters. At least two states are now generating
legislative feeds directly from databases. This article previews some of what
they'll be showing from the states of Texas, Utah, Wisconsin, and Rhode
Island.
