Granting RSS. New Online Program Simplifies Federal Grant Application Process

"Grants.gov is a simple, unified “storefront” for all customers of Federal grants to electronically find, apply for, and manage grants.

Grants.gov encompasses over 900 grant programs offered by the 26 Federal grant-making agencies. It streamlines the process of awarding over $350 billion annually to state and local governments, academia, not-for-profits and other organizations.

Grants.gov is one of the 24 Federal cross-agency E-Government initiatives focused on improving access to services via the Internet. The vision for Grants.gov is to produce a simple, unified source to electronically find, apply for, and manage grant opportunities." [Suburban Library System]

This site SCREAMS out for an RSS feed - feed me, feed me, feed me! Especially filtering by keyword. Ray Matthews has jumpstarted the RSS in Government blog with a vengeance and is posting some great stuff (in addition to maintaining a fantastic blogroll!). If only the folks behind Grants.gov were reading his site....
