Weblog Assignment #2

For this assignment you are to go to one of the sites below, and learn as much as you can about it. You do not have to read every word or follow every link, but it is important for you to know what a site does and what it has on it. Then, you should write two paragraphs.

In the first paragraph (5-7 sentences), describe the site as carefully as you can. Tell what it does, what it has on it, what it looks like, who made it (if you know), etc. Link to the site as soon as possible, in the first sentence if you can. Tell the title of the site.

In the second paragraph (5-7 sentences), give your opinion. It can be your opinion about the site, about the subject, about the pictures, about the web design, anything. Tell why you feel the way you do. How is the US different from your country in this subject? Why is this important? How does this subject make you feel? Any of these can be your opinion. Write more if you want. Remember that everyone will read it! Put your paragraphs on your own weblog. Later you will put two of your entries on this weblog.
