This is one of those things where I would have expected the opposite in your country vs the US, my country. Here pretty much everything important has an RSS feed. The Internal Revenue Service, Health and Human Services, even my local news.
- nicbou 5y agoThe Berlin government is not good at digital services.
- pavel_lishin 5y agoThe town I live in publishes their updates via their Facebook page. :|
- dqv 5y agoNo! Facebook always surfaces news like two weeks after it happens, so you always have to check the individual Facebook pages to get timely updates. It’s time to move towns ;)
- Tabular-Iceberg 5y agoThe US has a reputation abroad for being cutthroat and business oriented, but in reality US public administration can be remarkably civically minded. For example, look at the wealth of data that the NOAA gives away for anyone to do what they please with. Whereas their European counterparts are mostly just unhelpful, or they gouge you with fees. The most glaring exception I can think of is not making it easy to file tax returns, for the benefit of companies like Intuit.
