The official online home of the Common Core standards has gotten a makeover.  They've made it easier for anyone that visits the site to obtain clear and accurate information about the Common Core.  There's a nice 3 minute video explaining what the Common Core is and there's a map of all the states that have adopted the Core along with links to their state's Common Core page. Check it out!
