New U.S. Supreme Court website

The United States Supreme Court unveiled its new, updated website yesterday.

The new design appears cleaner and maybe more modern than the old version, which had been hosted & maintained by the Government Printing Office since its design & inception in 2000. The new layout in some ways resembles an iGoogle format with its building slide show.

The Court's press release describes it as having "an updated and more user-friendly design. While continuing to provide online access to the Court's slip opinions, orders, oral argument transcripts, schedules, court rules, bar admission forms, and other familiar information, it also has several new features, including enhanced search capabilities, an interactive argument calendar, improved graphics, and additional historic information, with plans to continue to update and expand features over time…."
