Congress Wants To Allow New Web Tools by Aliya Sternstein, National Journal’s Technology Daily, December 12, 2007 PM edition [subscription required]

Congress is slowly moving ahead with rule changes that would allow House members and senators to enhance their Web sites with links and content from commercial sites, like social networks and video-sharing services.

Options under consideration include permitting members to use video-streaming sites if the sites are ad-free and protect the uploaded material from tampering.
