Hackers’ Hall of Fame

I went to the site, “Hackers’ Hall of Fame.” This side introduces fifteen famous hackers. Their pictures take turns on the top of this page. If you want to know about the detail about each of them, you have two choices. One is to click the picture you are interested in. The other one is to choose the number that you want. On the left side, you can link to the connection information about hackers – Lingo, Hackers Hoaxes, and Cyber Terrorism.

Although I don’t like hackers, I have to admit that almost all of them are intelligent. When I got into several of the fifteen hackers’ information and looked at the details, I was surprised that to be a hacker is just like their vocation. They can’t stop. By the way, I like the simple style of the design of this site. It’s clean and clear and everyone can find the information they want easily.

Al Capone Museum

The site I visited is "Al Capone Museum." It introduces complete information about Al Capone, and a small part about the website designer. The homepage of the site, which includes a good deal of photos, is full of the deluxe ambiance of gangland. You can click anything about Al Capone you’re interested in, and you could make a comment, too.

In the beginning, I was attracted by the homepage. After that, I entered the items one by one, and I like the information presented with pictures. The way it shows lets people know about Al Capone very well. In addition, I’m so surprised that the author, Diane Tremblay, can collect so much information about the legend. She really did a good job.

YOU TUBE

Regarding for homework on blogger, I chose one website whose name is You Tube; its home page has a lot of videos about everything, some songs, some for discover, some for news on TV like CNN, somevideos that have short times and onther that one longer. It is different thinking and idea. I watched some things I found interesting and funny. Some videos were real but some not; they were just made to show people some things.


I think this web site has a lot of Experience with information for some people who make movies by themselves? who show what they think and do? I think too some trying is good and different job.

THE MANSON MYTH

Charles Manson the most famous common criminal in the world, after Tate-LaBianca murders, he was born in Ohio on Nov. 12, 1934, and his old named Kathleen Maddox. the pitiful words. He still had no name at 16 years old, because his mother was single; after soon she marred William Manson, he provided a last name. His name is a synonym for evil; he continues to have charisma and sexual magnetism so extraordannary that he ruled of fanatically devoted followers willing to kill at his command. Charles Manson was the are that the prosecutor, Vincent Bugliosi, popularized in the best- selling true crime book of all time, Helter Skelter.

My opinion the crime not came with out beginig must some start befour like him was from singile mother no father no body give him care and advice one by one going to ceriminal.

The Stock Market

I went to Stock-Market site on the web. It is showing the horrible events in markets. There are three picures on the homepage. On one of these picures there is magazine which has writing on it,"selling frezy makes new drama in market" this means that the investors are selling their shares. It means the stock market was falling down. There are some important links, forexample, bear market articles, financial erisis history and additional financial content.

In general the website is great. It helps the investors who can invest his money in the safe way. It also shows how the stock market's crash happend, to tell the investors what the reasons are. In this site you can get alot of information. There is a link for the largest stock markets around the world. If you are not afraid of the risk and have alot of luck, go and invest your money in one of these stock markets.

Death Penalty

I went to Death Panelty site on the web. Death penalty is to kill someone as a punishment. The site has much information about murder crimes and death penalty, especially in the U.S. There is list of the the newest news about the death penalty. On the left of the site, above, under the link "execution database" is a list of murderers who were killed as punishment and their victims and the date of the crime.

In this site you will get good information about the death penalty in the U.S. As reported in the site, there are just 38 states in the U.S. that use the death penalty. I agree with these states that use the death penalty as a punishment of murder. I think it shoud be the victims' family's choice if they want to kill the murderer leqally. The criminals as I see it will be afraid to commit this kind of crime, because of the death penalty. We heard of lot of murders that were committed to steal money or in small fighting, and we know that nothing is equal in life. So I hope this role will be more common around the world. May be it will save someone's life.

Visit any of the sites below. Your job is to describe the site in one paragraph. You can tell what it looks like, what it shows us, who made it, or what it's for. Do this in 5-7 sentences. DO NOT COPY. Your paragraph will link to the site, so remember which one you went to and identify it clearly.

Then, tell us what you think. This should be in another paragraph. You can tell us your opinion of the site, what it says, or what it does, or, you can tell us what you think about the subject. You can say that it is interesting or different (this is an opinion) but tell us why. Use 5-7 sentences for this also.
