Evaluating Websites

1. On Internet Detective the first website titled "Google Gulp" they provide is not a reliable source. The website does not tell you who the website was written by, it doesnt give you who to contact, and it doesnt give you any way of checking if the information is correct. The second website fof #1 "Aluminum Foil Deflector Beanie"is reliable. It states who the author is, its is very easy to use and figure out, and all of the links work.
3. Between all three websites they gave you to choose for a state report I would have to choose number 2 because is was the most reliable out of all of them. It gave you many links to other websites, it gave many useful information, and it gives you many numbers for contact information. I wouldnt recommend the first one because it was very unorganized, it gave a false picture on it, and it didnt give any contact information. I wouldnt recommend the third website either because the one big reason is because its on Wikipeda, which is not reliable because anyone can contribute to it.
These past 2 days when we were learning how to check if the website is reliable. One thing I already knew was how to use a boolean operator, but I didnt know how to check if the website was reliable or not, which will help me in the future.
