Our colleagues at the blog Tech Daily Dose, wrote about a new Web site recently launched by transparency researcher Jerry Brito at the Mercatus Center at George Mason University to make it easier for the public to find and comment on federal regulations -- a direct competitor to the government's Regulations.gov.
Here's an excerpt:
The co-creator of the government accountability Web site StimulusWatch.org has launched a new project intended to make federal rulemakings easier for the public to access and offer comment. Jerry Brito, a senior research fellow at the Mercatus Center at George Mason University, recently unveiled OpenRegs.com, which takes the Federal Register's daily XML feed to new heights. Currently, the U.S. government's Regulations.gov allows citizens to find, review, and submit comments on federal documents but Brito and others believe the portal is not as dynamic and user friendly as it could be.
