Journal #10
My favortie website that I like to use to look up new information is Google. Everyone uses it but we have to be careful if the information that it is giving is true. When I click on a url I check the bottom of the website to see if there is an About Us or Contact Us; if there not there then I move onto the next website because if the can't share that kind of informaiton then I won't use it. Another way that I check it is check a different website and/or check a book and if it comes up again then I know that the infomation is valid because it comes up multiple times. On my blog most of the information is true. But I can't always be 100% sure because I am still a student and learning. Also my blog more or less are opinions and what I think, so you can't always depend on my blog (or any) to give exact information as a book. Although most blog most likely tell you the facts and aren't that opinionated.

I could tell from your writing that you weren't thinking only about your blog when you wrote this. That's because there are lots of different types of blogs. In fact, it could be perfectly reasonable to cite one blog as a source in a paper while deciding that another blog is invalid. This is why website evaluation is so important, because you want to be able to decide for yourself whether or not a website is worth looking at.
