New SSA Mobile Optimized Website
From a Social Security
press release:
Carolyn W. Colvin, Acting Commissioner of Social Security, today
announced the agency is offering a new mobile optimized website,
specifically aimed at smartphone users across the country. People
visiting the agency’s website, www.socialsecurity.gov,
via smartphone (Android, Blackberry, iPhone, and Windows devices) will
be redirected to the agency’s new mobile-friendly site. Once there,
visitors can access a mobile version of Social Security’s Frequently
Asked Questions, an interactive Social Security number (SSN) decision
tree to help people identify documents needed for a new/replacement SSN
card, and mobile publications which they can listen to in both English
and Spanish right on their phone. ...
In addition, visitors to the new mobile site can learn how to create a personal my Social Security account to get an online Social Security Statement,
learn more about Social Security’s award-winning online services, and
connect with Social Security on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and
Pinterest. For people unable to complete their Social Security business
online or over the telephone, the agency also unveiled a new mobile
field office locator. The new mobile office locator has the capability
to provide turn-by-turn directions to the nearest Social Security office
based on information entered by the person.
“With significant budget cuts of nearly a billion
dollars each year over the last few years, we must continue to leverage
technology and find more innovative ways to meet the evolving needs of
the American public without compromising service,” said Acting
Commissioner Colvin.
Each year, more than 35 million Social Security web page views come via smartphones.
