Class Links

The following are blog sites from my peer which I found very informative and worth visiting.

Universal Health Care: Revamping the American Health Care System: This blog works hard to create a clean and concise blog in the health care system today. The single but varying shades of color add a more professional tone while being easy on the eyes and the extra sources and commentary on the side are very helpful and interesting without being overwhelming. The author uses a good balance of statistics and numbers with very valuable information to inform the reader and keep them interested.

Secondhand Smoke is No Joke: This blog deals with the negative effects of just being near a smoker. The author approached to topic in a way that was quite unique. S/he did not rant and rave about the negative effects but saw the opposite point of view as was able to clearly point out flaws and issues. The use of color adds and almost child-like tone to an adult issue which I find quite witty and his/her use of example is a great way to get people interested.

Abortion: This blog is so closely related to my own that being informed on the issue is crucial. This author used a more confrontational approach, such as the images, which is very appealing to readers because want to have an opinion. No one wants to waste time reading for hours and not getting anything out of the time. The author clearly states his/her points and positions while providing accurate information.
