Editor's Notes

  1. This presentation explains how to objectively look at web sites.
  2. Clues often appear on the top or bottom of a page, or in menu bars and frames. These sections often contain authorship clues!
  3. Pages can be cluttered and confusing Graphics can slow down the page
  4. I used several of these web sites to demonstrate how easy it is to be deceived by persuasive looking web sites.
