The internet has many different ways to present data, media and to convey an opinion on things. The first way is in a text based format and is used on virtually every website you would visit whilst on the internet, the most popular would be Wikipedia (
www.wikipedia.org) as it displays a lot of information through text and delivers the required amount of knowledge and detailed explanation you need. It also does use another form of presenting information but on a minor scale, which is the use of pictures and images to present information. The main websites which use this form of presentation are sites such as Google Images and the image search on Bing as it displays pictures that include the information you have asked for or relevant information from your search. So information can be viewed on all sorts of different types of websites, you can read news pages and view people's reports easily. Data is presented on all sorts of sites to show an audience a certain topic of interest, in different ways. Dependant on the subject, images, text, audio and video can be used on websites to show different things. Google is a great website to search through billions of different websites and data, for example if you wanted to know about a new tv series, you could type into Google (
www.google.co.uk) 'New tv series', and Google would categorise all the results related to this definition in front of you, so you can click through and view information and data. To look through all different types of images online, Google Images (
http://www.google.co.uk/imghp?hl=en&tab=wi) makes things very easy and puts data in a presentable format where you can look through the images you want. Youtube (
www.youtube.com) is the same, but for videos, and people can create their own 'Channels' to publish their own videos and upload onto the internet. Data can be presented in different fonts, sizes, styles and formats, depending on where you want text, how big, what topic you want the text to represent. (For example if you were presenting a Gothic band of some kind, you could do dark,
Gothic text to suit the subject). The ability to present and produce all different types of data online gives the internet more spice and gives different websites individual looks depending on the producers interest or purpose.

very text based and with no pictures or any other sort of media the text was very hard to read in one quick read. but never the less the text was informative.
very informative and useful. It's fitting to the type of thing you would expect to read through a blog but could be more spaced out and use more pictures. Breaking into paragraphs would be easier to read. But all in all very informative and a good read.
Hmmm yeah, i will try and add some pictures and media types to spice it up in the future, thanks for feedback.
good use of web-links as well as the use of relative pictures that make the text easier to read
Wikipedia and Google are by far the most popular ways to present information and are sure the quickest, but just take precautions as the information found might not always be true...
