Government Embraces YouTube

President Obama isn't the only federal government official taking advantage of YouTube these days, the video sharing site's news and politics guru Steve Grove pointed out in a Friday blog post. Dozens of official federal YouTube channels exist where Internet users can access footage from NASA, the State Department, the FBI, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and more. "It's all part of making Washington, D.C., more transparent and accessible than ever before -- and helping you easily navigate government information that's relevant to your life," Grove wrote. There's more to come in the months ahead. For now, go to the U.S. government's hub on YouTube and see what it has to offer.
