When was whitehouse.gov launched?
On October 20, 1994, President Clinton and Vice President Gore opened a
World Wide Web home page called "Welcome to the White House: An Interactive
Citizens' Handbook," and it remains one of the more popular spots on the
Web.
What kinds of information can I access on whitehouse.gov?
The White House home page provides, among other things, a single point
of access to virtually all government information available on the Internet.
Children especially enjoy the "White House for Kids" feature. Look for your
tour guides Socks and Buddy, the First Pets.

First Lady and Mrs. Gore?
The only personal addresses at whitehouse.gov are the following:

mrs.gore@whitehouse.gov
Does the President personally read the messages people send him?
Because so many of you write, the President cannot personally review
each message, though he does receive samples of his incoming correspondence.
The White House Correspondence staff helps him read and respond to the mail.
Will I receive a response to the message I send on whitehouse.gov?
You will promptly receive an autoresponder message with useful
information about whitehouse.gov. No other message purporting to be from the
President or his staff with an address at whitehouse.gov is authentic. If you
have received such a message, you have received a "spoof." All additional
responses are mailed via the U.S. Postal Service.

whitehouse.gov?
Since June 1993, the President has received over 2.8 million messages
from people across the country and around the world.
