* HOT DOC: 
"Recovery.gov is a website that lets you, the taxpayer, figure out where the money from the
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act is going. There are going to be a few
different ways to search for information. The money is being distributed by
Federal agencies, and soon you’ll be able to see where it’s going
- to which states, to which congressional districts, even to which Federal
contractors."
