I agree
Thanks for the feedback! We definitely looked at Gov.uk when designing the new site.
We did discuss opening external links in new tabs/windows, but ultimately decided against it. This is for a few reasons:
Reminds me of the award-winning gov.uk. The site pages use plain language, and are uncluttered with extemporaneous info.Nice simple navigation - simple is best, and very hard to do.
Pages have a plethora of links. But so far, the external links I've tried take me to a new site, completely away from the site page that has more links for me to explore.
Would it be useful to the viewer to have external page links open new tabs/windows rather than navigate away from usa.gov? I'd like other thoughts on this.
