From Information Week:

NASA, which has one of the most multimedia feature-rich sites of any federal agency, has made a series of user-interface improvements to its website to make it easier for people to use as well share media and information from it on Facebook and Twitter.

Updates NASA made to the site include adding images to a box on its homepage called "What are people interested in?" that shows the most popular topics on the site, and a streamlining of "Share" options on the top of each site page from a list of hundreds to four, which then expand if a user is interested into the full list.

The article concludes with a mentions of two NASA web archiving a projects.

1) The NASA-Archive It (part of the Internet Archive) project hopes to create a centralized and searchable database of all NASA social media.

2) A NASA/Internet Archive project to create a central repository for all NASA digitized photographs and film/video.
