Have you ever asked yourself: How do I pull data from my agency’s multiple different systems together? What does all this data mean? What can I do with it once I have it? And, how can I use it to inform changes and better serve my community? At this year’s 8th Annual Federal Communications Summit, we’ll start answering those questions.
Last year, more than 1,000 Federal employees and contractors registered for our annual Federal Digital Communications event. And, according to post-event surveys, 97% of attendees would recommend the event to colleagues. Don’t miss out on this one-of-a-kind conference. Space is limited so register today.This event is free and open to all government employees and approved contractors (non-government registrants are subject to host’s approval).

I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
