FirstGov gets a new name
January 12, 2007
FirstGov, which you know and love, now has a new name: USA.gov. An FAQ about the name switch is available, but they say the basic gist of it is this: "We did it because you asked us to. Feedback from the public told us that we need a name that is easier to understand and remember." Go figure
Don’t forget to now go and change all the links and bookmarks you had for FirstGov to USA.gov.

Personally I’d've gone with ‘america.gov’ or maybe ‘starthere.gov’.

Just changed my library’s links. Thanks!
