Status of e-Government in Georgia
As e-commerce facilitated the movement of businesses from bricks and mortar interfaces, Internet and communication technology are moving e-govemment to a point where all citizens will be able to access government services in their homes. This paper reports the status of e-government in Georgia (USA), with particular attention to stages of e-government development in the state. Currently, only 51 percent of counties in Georgia have official e-government web sites. Generally, rural counties have not developed their official e-government web sites as much as have counties in metropolitan areas

An Exploratory Study of the Impact of Formatting on Email Effectiveness and Recall
Although literally trillions of emails are sent annually, little empirical research exists about how formatting of emails impacts email effectiveness. Abundant research exists about the use of subject lines, yet little research addresses the formatting of email content. Many experts from the business communication field have offered advice on effective formatting. We conducted an experiment that controlled for formatting of email messages. The first email message was a job announcement. The second email message contained identical content yet employed what are considered best practices for formatting. We found that university students who viewed the formatted message were significantly more likely to perceive the advertised job as attractive. Furthermore, they were significantly more likely to correctly recall facts about the job. This lends credibility to existing advice from the business communication field about effective formatting. It also serves as a foundation for additional and more nuanced research about an issue that nearly all professionals face on a daily basis
