Public relations is one area where America's Central Intelligence Agency leaves a whole lot to be desired, but the organization has taken a great step towards remedying this with their new CIA website.

The new revamp of their domain is designed to be interactive and engaging to visitors. This new CIA website includes a YouTube channel, a Flickr photo-stream and an entire childrens section, complete with games and educational videos. The positive improvement to their online media presence is a step forward for the CIA as a whole -- particularly with kids.
