Access eGovernment Guide Introduction

Making Smart Choices

The Access eGovernment program will help county governments make smart choices about planning and implementing eGovernment. The main focus is on developing dynamic, information-rich websites that meet the needs of county residents and county government.

Providing Alternatives

Good eGovernment initiatives offer citizens and businesses alternative ways to find information, communicate with officials and staff, and transact business—at their convenience. It's multi-channel, 24/7, and user-driven.

A Work-in-Progress

Like eGovernment itself, this guide is in a constant state of development.

Glossary

Crawler
A software program which visits websites to create indexes for search engines. Also known as spiders, bots, and intelligent agents.

Quotable

Today, the X Internet is all about doing more with what you have. Companies have invested millions in PCs, devices, and bandwidth to support today's inefficient Web. Executable and extended Internet applications let you exploit the power of that existing equipment, satisfy the customer better, and reduce bandwidth costs in the bargain.
-—Carl D. Howe, Forrester analyst
