Throughout the hypertext essay assignment, I have had to use the elements of validating a reliable website before creating my essay. When assessing the article, "What 'Never-ending Friending' Means", I checked the source for authority, accuracy, relevancy and currency. All of the required elements were met by a creation date, a date of updating the site, the author's name and information and the organization sponsoring the site. In addition to the assigned reading, sites I used to develop my own opinion came from relevant news sites and articles from websites such as CNN.com. By using these reliable sources of information, my essay was easy to cross reference and use to gain additional information. Furthermore, I included a source that involved direct interaction with this social revelation. Facebook and Myspace served as prime examples of the newly incorporated forms of technological communication. Through the research I have completed and the articles posted by other authors, I was able to provide an essay that explored the subject of technological communication and the controversies associated with this particular subject.

I agree with your blog. During the hypertext assignment, i too used my website accuracy skills. It was a little hard trying to find credible sources about stem cells. Most sites offer someones view what they think stem cell reseach should be treated. I am sure it is like this for almost any topic out there.
