Practical 7 Reflection

I have used coverage, authority, accuracy, currency, accessibility, presentation and arrangement, usability and overall quality.Coverage is minimal. Most STOMPers go on the principle of no action, talk only. STOMPers may not have the authority to take certain videos or pictures of people Many of them invade privacy for the sake of getting their video, and in the end they get flamed by other STOMPers. News may not be accurate at all.

They are posted in the view of the STOMPer only and some of them try to be funny in the wrong ways. However, all news are updated everyday. There are too many ads and picture links all over the site which makes it very distracting. The style of writing however will be different for all STOMPers. Some may even post many irrelevant posts about other countries, or irrelevant issues that aren't important in daily life, causing online "pollution".

I have learnt through this activity that some websites which are touted to be the most current or the best may not actually be one. The typical internet surfer may not know what it takes for a website to be rated well but through this activity, I have learnt how to evaluate a website properly. Many factors are taken into account which includes the user of the webgsite in this case.

Sharing of views on Wiki i find it good, as other can filled up the blank on what you didn't get to research on that particular parts. And it good that it really build up some knowleadge from what other views... But some might be not truth, so cant really totally believe on it...
