Defense Department Has New Web Look

On Monday the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) launched a new home page for its website at www.defense.gov. This web page is intended to be the main entry portal for the DoD, replacing www.defenselink.mil/ (read the press release here). According to the release, the new home page is "designed to invite participation from the public," and it features a "We Want to Hear From You" section near the top of the page that allows the public to make comments and ask questions (you'll need to register by creating a username and password). The left side of the home page features an increased number of links to DoD social networking pages and applications (blogs, RSS, Facebook, Flickr, Twitter, YouTube . . . ). So even if you dislike the new DoD home page, you still have plenty of other Web interfaces for checking up on the latest DoD news.

To find even more web resources associated with the military, take a look at our guide.
