In addition to the new visual appearance there have been substantive changes as well:
- materials are grouped by tag;
- the President of Russia's activities can be visualised geographically (section Russia) through a news map (Russia/International);
- a section for state institutions and presidential advisory and consultative bodies (institutional section State) has been created; and,
- the Documents section has been improved.
In addition, the Russian version of Dmitry Medvedev's personal site (medvedev.kremlin.ru), along with traditional biographical information now features the Personal Photos section where Dmitry Medvedev has posted several photos taken by him. Mr Medvedev will post new images from time to time.
The version of the Russian website for mobile phones and smartphones (pda.kremlin.ru) transmits news items, transcripts and photographs. An SMS alert service allows subscribers to receive headlines of the most important news items on their mobile as they are published on the site, as well as information on significant updates.
A special version of the site for the visually impaired (special.kremlin.ru) has been developed in accordance with national standards and in light of international expertise on the matter.
The main address of the President's English-language site remains the same: eng.kremlin.ru.
