Searching for People

1.
A) yes, i looked up my mother Dorothy Tofari.
B) switchboard.com
C) switchboard.com is the one i found to be the most current and inforspace still had us listed under our old address in Manteno.

2. I think it is fine having my families information but i think nothing more then what would be listed in the phone book should be given out such as a map to locate my house on that site.

3.
A)The list of resources offered at the SuperPage site are Restaurants, Hotels, Florists, Physicians, Surgeons, and Car Dealers
B) I think SuperPages has a more broad line of what you area able to search and much easier to get around.
C) When I typed in the number in the reverse look up finder i was able to locate my mother Doroty Tofari.

4. This site provides me with everything i will need it gives me a map, the phone number, the address, and even an email.

Searching News

Both of these sites have similarities and differences. One of the first differences you can see is that the google sat is very plain formatted with a white background and few colors, where the WN webpage has a gray and black background with many colors that catch your eye right away.The WN website seems like it has alot of information just on that main page so you do not have to really look around of search for alot of it, where the google one has some information but links from that could probobly take you to more information.They both provide a list of different catigories on the top left hand side that are very general but allow you to navigate easily. They both have accesible search bars in the top right hang corner so if your topic needs to be looked into more it is easy to just search there. One of the big strengths of google is that at the bottom it provides google international whichh allows you to translate that web page into any language you need.

Narrative Evaluation

I do not think this is a vild site. It provides a lot of bad information. This is not a bias site at all it is just all of the bad facts and quotes of Martin Luther King. If someone was writing a paper or giving a speech against MLK this would be a good site to use but also it may just a more of a blog or a place to put there thoughts of the historical legin. Although the page is set up very well i do not think this is something that people could use as a reliable source. Overall I think the page is set up well but if the information in it was more bias i think it would be much more reliable.
