US economic recovery stats

Continuing with their pledge of open government, and their impressive grasp of web 2.0, Obama's administration yesterday launched the Recovery.gov website. Once funds start flowing through the ARRA (the economic package just signed into law), anyone with internet access should be able to track exactly where the money is going. And see some pretty graphics too!

Should help to avoid the disaster that accompanied the Iraq reconstruction project a few years ago, which resulted in billions of dollars going missing. Long may this openness continue!
