Would be nice to indicate which agencies let you submit FOIAs electronically vs print/fax w/o clicking on each @18F https://open.foia.gov/agencies/

I think we need to understand more clearly what the user need here is, and why it would be useful -- and then decide accordingly whether this is something we want to implement.

I guess it's like on a fast food restaurant's website when it indicates in the paginated listings if a spot has a drive-thru. (http://www.dunkindonuts.com/dunkindonuts/en/stores.html)

It'd just be nice to know which agencies make it more convenient for me to make FOIA requests. I might be more compelled to make a request knowing the agency isn't going to make me get out of my car.

While it would be handy to know which agencies make it convenient to make electronic FOIA requests, wouldn't it be even handier to build a feature that enables the user to submit a FOIA request digitally to any of them?
