Webmasters often wonder:
What government sites do government employees actually use?
I remember my bookmarks and the ones I checked constantly were:
1) USAJOBS – Oops…it’s a non-secret that lots of Govies are looking for their next gov’t job. I see that USAJOBS red screen out of the corner of my eye a lot.
2) TSP.gov – How much money do I have in retirement? Always a big one.
3) GSA Per Diem Rates – Where am I going for travel? How much loot do I get to spend?
4) OPM Pay Scale – So you’re a Grade 12, Step 1 now. Let’s map out what a 12, Step 5 makes or 13, 2.
5) My Intranet – The agency made it my home page but I actually liked it as a way to keep up with what is going on in my agency.
You? What 5 .govs do you visit regularly?

Federal Register site. Especially now that they have redesigned it. Amazing job!
Also use GSA’s travel site for Air-Fare information and Lodging Information along with PerDiem and POV reimbursement rates
Will with some degree of regularity visit OPM’s public facing page
