One piece of mail I always enjoy from the gov’ment is my social security statement. It’s just fun, in a darkly comic sort of way, to see how much cash I’ll qualify for when I retire or if I become disabled tommorow (two things I admit I don’t think about much). I searched Google and found a companion web site for my statement. Pretty fun that they even have one (and dig that imagemap–how modern). But check this out: if you roll over a link in the corny image map, you’ll see that they’re running PHP! How very hip of them! I was supprised as hell to see an open source technology running at the heart of the Microsoft dominated US government.
