Practical 7 Reflection

a. Which criteria did you use to evaluate Stomp.com? Why did you choose this criteria? What lessons have you learnt from this activity?

Purpose: To provide news to the community. Not any news. Local news that tells us about the eccentricities of Singapore.
Alot of the news is directed at youths as this is the kind of news that is interesting to them. Some of which are molesting cases, fights etc

Accessibility: The site is accessible to everyone wanted to read about the latest gossip. However i think that the site should not be able to accessed by young kids as some of the pictures or videos contain explicit language and sexually explicit content. Even though the site is moderated, some content is not meant for children

Currency: The website is very current. The latest happenings are posted here. People are also constantly talking in forums about the latest happenings.

b. How do you feel about sharing your views through Wiki?

I think its a great way to share my views. People can read it. However people may edit my posts and remove them from the web without my permission. This can be annoying as sometimes i may spend alot of time and effort on a post.
