As we the internet everyday in our lives I have decided to compile my favorite websites that seem to be the most useful for me... The websites are selected by
· Design
· Ease of use
· Copywriting
· Interactivity
· Use of technology
· Innovation
· Content
GOOGLE
Google is the number one visited web site daily as per “alexa.com” but come on who doesn’t use Google, as everyday they keep their design simple but still unique by customizing there banner to a different theme. Google offers a variety of search engines from maps, news, videos to images. Allowing for all users to get instant gratification through out the website…. Without Google in my life I would be lost.
www.google.com
FACEBOOK
Now that my grandma has Facebook it has become evident that this social networking site is a phenomenon that we can’t deny. Now that Facebook is now offering an email setting, who knows where this web site will be in a couple years as with the new email setting you are able send and share documents throughout Facebook.

LOOKBOOK
This website is definitely for people who love fashion. LOOKBOOK was created to bring together a diverse group of talented and open-minded people from around the world and showcase the best in global street fashion. This website was developed in San Francisco and has taken off from here it display young inspiring models and fashion designers which people within the fashion community rate your clothing. If you are voted for this helps you build “karma” which will allow for your clothing to be displayed on the front page.

STUMBLE UPON
With out this website my days would not be complete as this website allows me to surf the internet for hours. This unique websites pulls up websites based on things you might be interested in. It figures out what your interest are by asking short surveys and by clicking the like button on websites that interest you they are able to always come up with something new. This web site is perfect when you have time to kill and just want to surf the net. .

PEREZ HILTON
I love celebrity gossip and I love being able to instantly find out anything about a celebrity. I think Perez does a great job in updating his website. I must go to his website at least 2 to 3 times a day and there is always something new and interesting happening. Also that he has a large archive in which your able to recall any of his posting.

YOU TUBE
Although YouTube is owned by Google it’s still runs of its own separate website! Lets all face it we have all been sent a funny YouTube videos ....... either of cute kittens or a funny prank. Youtube is great because it allows for anyone to take part in this interactive world. It’s neat to see that our society today uses YouTube on a daily basis from streaming projects to just goofing around with friends. YouTube allows for people to have voice in the internet realm... kind of like the public sphere these days ....

ALEXA
This is a interesting website as it allows for you to see current internet trends and which websites are being visited the most. Interesting fact about alexa.com Is that it is a subsidiary company to amazon.com. Overall alexa.com collect information about browsing behavior and history, this web site is very useful when do research about companies.

WIKIPEDIA
I am about 100% sure if you are an internet user you have definitely crossed paths with Wikipedia as this is an online encylopedia project. Although at first the downfall with this website was that anyone had access to it which allowed for anyone to make changes to information. Within time now Wikipedia has grown so big that it is becoming a more and more reliable source as one is not able to instantly alter and information anymore without others looking over it. As a business communication major my teachers in first year warned us not to even look at this website but by the time I graduated professors were now viewing the website as some what credible.
