Three Internet Sites I Visit

1) http://www.allamericanrejects.com: The site is fairly simple to navigate around, the main navigation links are all neatly in a row in an easy to read (and find) white on dark green font. Even though the site hasn’t been updated since September, everything works and information is about as current as it can be. My favorite part of this webpage is the interactive main page where you can click on the pictures of the band members and totally useless information about the member and other pictures come up.
2) http://www.buzznet.com: Buzznet is a site that would be put in the same category as Myspace or Facebook. The site was recently redone this summer and since then I’ve found it difficult to get around. To do something simple, like to change your profile picture or to send a message to another user, you have to click on a seemingly endless amount of links that could be found with just one on Myspace.
3) http://www.google.com: I might be cheating with this one, but I expect my search engine to work and bring me back hits that actually obtain to my keywords. So, it’s not really the information on the website that’s important, but what the website finds. It’s also one of the most simple, yet complex, websites. It’s simple because it comes up ready to do a normal internet search so all you have to do is type in what you’re looking for and click “Google search” and complex because of what it’s able to do and the other services available on it.
