Launches Free Service to Help Citizens Find Government Information More
Efficiently
PITTSBURGH, April 8 /PRNewswire/ -- Vivisimo, Inc., a global provider of
advanced document clustering and content integration software, today unveiled
a free online service that automatically categorizes the search results from
FirstGov.gov - the U.S. Government's official web portal. Vivisimo's new
service, located at http://vivisimo.com/firstgov, helps citizens find
government information quickly and easily by organizing FirstGov search
results into meaningful subject categories.
FirstGov provides a comprehensive search of government information
including over 51 million web pages from federal and state governments and
U.S. territories. The problem lies in trying to sort through all of the
relevant information. A FirstGov search can produce 1000 or more search
results in a long ranked list. Vivisimo's automatic document clustering
technology improves the FirstGov search dramatically and helps users sort
through the results. Vivisimo's service presents easy-to-browse categories
that allow users to drill down immediately into relevant topics making it much
easier to find desired information.
"FirstGov is an excellent resource that provides a gateway to public U.S.
government information," stated Raul Valdes-Perez, President Vivisimo, Inc.
"By offering an enhanced search of FirstGov we are making government
information even more accessible to citizens, businesses and government
employees."
