Utah moved from its fourth-place ranking to first in the Digital States Survey, conducted every two years by the Center for Digital Government, because the online services it provides match up to users' needs.
"Gov. [Jon] Huntsman has been focused on trying to provide better information technology and better service for our citizens," said Steve Fletcher, Executive Director of Utah's Department of Technology Services.
"He is also focused on improving our energy efficiency, so our performance in the 2008 survey is the culmination of a lot of things."
Huntsman credits the new 10-hour, four-day with helping Utahns see the "more than 800 online services" the state provides.
