1. Who knows? It's probably just a rebranded page.

5. I did check it out. Didn't see anything different.

Except that it's oriented toward searching government websites. The ads are the same.

It's a niche service, so OK, but nothing to get excited about.

10. LOL - I just googled for "www.google.com/unclesam"
It searches .gov and .mil websites.
But I also found a lot of pages with interesting searching hints.

9. It is a very useful tool
for looking for any and all government forms. It really helps to have the form number. This is a great site if you are dealing with the Federal Government.
