"CONGRESS ONLINE" REPORT RELEASE SET FOR MARCH 3
------------------------------------------------

The Congress Online Project will release its 2003 report about
congressional Web sites on Monday, March 3.  This report names the
winners of the Congress Online Gold, Silver, and Bronze Mouse Awards and
provides guidance to congressional offices on how to improve their own
Web sites.  We don’t want to give away any secrets until the release,
but we’re certain you’ll be surprised by our findings:

- What are the best Web sites on Capitol Hill?
- Will the GOP continue to dominate the awards in the House?  Will
Senate Democrats extend their reign in collecting Gold and Silver
Mouses?
- Are there differences between the House and Senate committee Web
sites?
- How is Congress performing, overall?  How do the chambers and parties
compare?
- What are the common mistakes congressional offices are making with
their Web sites?

Find out on Monday, March 3.  A briefing on the report will be held at
10:00 am in Room 2123 Rayburn HOB.  (Seating is limited -- we request
that congressional offices send no more than ONE staff member per
office.)

If you can’t attend the briefing, all subscribers to this newsletter
will receive an e-mail summary of the report and link to an online
version posted at 2:00 pm.

And, if you want to be reminded of the Congress Online Gold and Silver
Mouse Award winners from our 2002 study and competition, check out last
year’s report at http://www.congressonlineproject.org/webstudy2002.html.
