This is an example of how you can sort through data to get some information you need. I've signed up to follow nextgov on Twitter
Washington, DC -- Government Executive Media Group, the DC-based publisher of the Nextgov.com federal technology community site, said on Monday that it has launched a new tool designed to aggregate official Twitter feeds from federal government agencies. Dubbed "The Feed," Nextgov's new Twitter page pulls together feeds from dozens of federal agencies, allowing readers to monitor government activities in real time. Allan Holmes, the executive editor of Nextgov, said the page is a response to the federal government's increasing use of social networking tools, following President Obama's directive to improve transparency with the public. "Readers can see real time tweets from across the federal government such as a report from the Rose Garden on the President's energy bill speech, a warning from the National Terror Alert Response Center about terror threats in Sudan, and a tweet from the NIH on recent findings from their cancer research," said Holmes.
