Someone/group made $18 million redesigning one website. Not much went into it but man hours.

Funny, ok sad part: http://blog.recovery.gov/2011/08/22/what-would-you-do-to-make-recovery-gov-better/
They ask what they can do to make their site better and only get one comment.
*FLUSH*
I'm also notably disappointed in Google this morning. They are playing with political searches in their auto complete search results.
When I used to start typing into the search box the terms: "18 million dollar website" - I used to only have to type 18 million and it would offer an auto complete of the full phrase I was really looking for. I remember pulling this story up multiple times by going to google first and not having to type but two or three words before the autocomplete came up with what I wanted.
NOW it won't come up til I have typed all the way "18 million dollar we" and even then it offers "18 million dollar wedding" above the "18 million dollar website" result.
Google is ranking Kardashian news over the best news stories of government ineptness.
Even if I type Obama 18 Million, it doesn't offer me website as the last keyword, instead it throws you off by autocompleting "Obama 18 million votes"
Fuckers.
