e-Governance - It wowed me.

Yes. Google is a great resource for every human being who knows to use computers. (My kid googles if he wants to know about anything. He is only 7 years old). But, when we want the authentic source of information, we really need to know who has the authority to give that authentic source and we should know the website of that authority. Recent days, I have been wanting to know many things for which Indian government is tha authority. I used http://www.india.gov.in/ to get to the authentic information. For ex, I wanted to know if the government has announced the 2010 central government holidays. I could locate that in few seconds. There are lots of information related to various minitries. All the required details are organized based on the ministry. If you start using the government websites, you will get used to the ministries where you can find what information. Another day, I wanted to know how many assembly seats are there in each state, I could get it from the same site. All latest tax related details, tender details and what not. I felt yes, we are really getting better in India. There may be still issues and flaws, but we are getting there.
