google.com/unclesamDid you know that Google has a search engine related to governmental queries? Google's Uncle Sam search engine includes White House news, top governmental stories, American Forces Information Services, the Washington Post, and more. The search engine also searches .gov sites only.

It's pretty useful for "official" information, and one forum member who is a political science student is particularly thankful for a search engine that is targeted to such queries that are related to official government pages.

Forum discussion continues at DigitalPoint Forums.
