Governor of Oklahoma Debuts New Web Site Design at http://www.ok.gov

More Than 16 Million Visitors, 2 Million Transactions, and 75,000 Professional
License Renewals During 2008
OKLAHOMA CITY--(Business Wire)--
Oklahomans now have a redesigned government portal to visit and use as the
central gateway to interacting with the state government at http://www.ok.gov,
the state`s official Web site. OK.gov, which first launched in 2001 under the
name of YourOklahoma.com, receives an average of nearly 1.3 million visitors per
month and offers more than 260 online services to the businesses and citizens of
Oklahoma.

"The new portal design assists the state in providing Oklahomans with efficient
government," said Governor Brad Henry. "Oklahomans can now find information
faster with the new organization of content and search tools available at
OK.gov."

At the new OK.gov, visitors are greeted with new technologies such as a
`One-Click Search` utility to assist Oklahomans in finding answers fast by
displaying the most recent and popular content.

"This is phase one of the new OK.gov where we provide a more intuitive
experience for Oklahomans. The public can look forward to more new services and
utilities being launched on OK.gov in the near future," said Joe Fleckinger,
Deputy Director of the Office of State Finance.

The site now features translation available in 8 languages and the ability to
"Share" with eleven different social networking sites such as Twitter, Facebook,
and MySpace. Another new feature is a dashboard on the right column of the
homepage providing quick access to real-time content such as State Surplus
Auction items in the "Shop OK.gov" panel and the status of state bills in the
"Bill Tracker" panel.

Oklahomans are invited to visit OK.gov and provide feedback utilizing the online
"Feedback" form located in the "Support" menu. The portal also offers Live Chat
Help during normal Oklahoma government business hours, available through the
Help Center located in the right content area.

OK.gov is also assisting the state in its efforts to be more environmentally
friendly. Through http://gogreen.ok.gov, agencies can report the amount of paper
saved by putting services and information online. Oklahoma's online services
reduced paper consumption amongst state agencies by over 35.9 million sheets of
paper since January 2007.
