Question of the Week for Oct 10
I blog searched college softball. There were a lot of blogs talking about college softball, some talking about scholarships, pitchers who are having outstanding seasons, graduation rates of college athletes, along with tournaments and games. Typing in those two words: College Softball, I have come up with a variety of topics on that one issue. I think there are a lot of blogs on college softball because it is a big sport in most schools. Just like everyother sport, softball too has championships. Some people follow basketball, baseball, soccer, football, some people too follow softball. One man, Alan, even admits that he does not write about college softball often but that two pitchers award approval. I agree with what this blog writes, softball is just as hard as all the other sports. I just feel that sometimes, softball players don't get the reconigtion they deserve.
Question of the Week for Oct 3
Three major things for me that establish a good web site are: creditabilty, non-bias, and sources. Creditablity is a major issue for anyone I think. You have to know what your talking about to be able to inform other people. You can't just sound like you know what your talking about, you actually have to know. Non-bias is also big on my check list. I believe that you should always give both sides of the story. If you only give the side that you are in favor of, then what about the people that don't agree with you. There not going to want to visit your site because you only write about what you care. Also a form of bais is giving your opinion I believe. Personally, I think that you have to just stick to the facts, nothing more, and nothing less. Sources are also very important because one person does not know everything. So if you get information from another place, cite it. Also the web is great because when citing things, they come with links most of the time, so you have even visit that site and get more information.
Question of the Week for Sept. 26
As a consumer of the web you have to be careful what you read and where you read it. Creditablity is a huge issue dealing with the web. Whoever has access to the web can publish whatever it is that they desire for everyone to see. To establish crediablity you have to be a specialist in a field, I believe. Also if you are a household name then people know who you are and can assoicate your name with past works. As a producer of the web to establish creditablity, I list my education. I feel that in today's world education is everything, and if you don't have one it is looked upon as a bad thing. No I don't believe that corporations should be able to edit their own wiki sites. I also think that they should not be able to filter what is sent to the web about them and not. They could send only good things about information and non of the negatives. I believe that the wiki sites also deal a lot with opinion, and not very much fact. They are very one-way, only giving on side of the information.
