2006 Digital Counties Survey And the Winners Are… County governments are using Information Technology with greater and greater savvy each year, according to the 2006 Digital Counties Survey, an annual study by the Center for Digital Government (Center) and the National Association of Counties (NACo). To recognize their hard work and innovation, the survey’s top digital counties will be honored at a national awards ceremony which will coincide with NACo’s national conference in Chicago, Illinois next month. In April, all counties in the United States were invited to participate in the 2006 Digital Counties Survey. County officials responded to questions that included more than 100 measurements and data points about online service delivery, infrastructure, architecture and governance models. "In today's world, technology is essential for effective and efficient government," said NACo Executive Director Larry E. Naake. "County governments realize this and are using technology in new ways to improve the delivery of services to Americans. The Digital Counties Survey illustrates the innovation being pursued by counties across the country." Center Executive Director, Cathilea Robinett adds, “Counties continue to strive for excellence in serving their citizens. Our Digital Counties Survey showcases those counties most committed to service and innovation.
