Google tackles another vertical search with Google Government Search. As the Washington Post would say:

It's finally happening: The ever-expanding Google Inc. is making its move on the federal government.

Or maybe it is not as they would say. Nice journalism, but didn't Google launch this service way back in 1999?

I guess it is another way for Google to build brand loyalty while giving newspapers content, but who is going to remember they have all these vertical search services?

After all, this is the second time Google launched this particular vertical, and after researching for their articles even the mainstream media was clueless that this service is almost 7 years old.
